40. THE ORCHID REVIEW. (FEBRUARY, 1906. 
EULopHIA PaNicuata, Rolfe.—A large epiphytic species bearing a tall 
scape, about five feet high, terminating in an ample panicle of numerous 
flowers. It first flowered at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, in 
June, 1904, and Mr. Moore states that he picked it up in one of Messrs. 
Sander’s houses in September, 1902, with the record that it was purchased 
at the sale of the late Mr. Alfred Bleu’s Orchids, and that nothing further 
was known of its history. It now appears that its native country is 
Madagascar, a plant from that country Raving flowered in the collection of 
Herr C. Garber, Whigb., Paro-di-Trento, Siid Tyrol, Austria, and proved 
identical. The inflorescence sent by Mr. Moore had fifteen side branches — 
and an aggregate of nearly 150 flowers. The sepals are dusky brown in 
colour, and the petals and lip yellowish green, lined and somewhat 
teticulated with purple brown. It is very distinct.—Gard. Chron., 1905, 
li., p. 197. 
EvLopuia unpvuxata, Rolfe.—A native of Rhodesia, sent to Kew by 
C. F. H. Monro, Esq., of the Office of Mines, Buluwayo. It is a terrestrial — 
species, having subt pseudobulbs, producing a tuft of three to five 
narrow plicate leaves, and an erect scape about a foot high. The sepals 
are lined and suffused with purple-brown on a paler ground, and the petals 
and lip are pale green, the latter having three prominent undulate keels on 
sthe disc, in allusion to which the name is given. It belongs to the section 
Cyrtopera.—Gard. Chron,, 1905, ii., p. 198. 
LissocuiLus Manont, RoLFE.—A remarkable novelty, almost rivalling 
L. giganteus, Rchb. f., to which it is most allied, though differing in 
having the side lobes of the lip green, striped with brown, and the yellow 
keels much enlarged. It also was sent to Kew from Uganda, in April, 
1902, by Mr. John Mahon, and flowered about the same time as the 
following. For several weeks it formed a conspicuous object, standing 
above the tank of the Victoria house. The leaves are 4} to 54 feet long 
by 3} to 4 inches broad, and the Scape reached a height of 8 feet, and 
produced about three dozen flowers, The sepals are green lined with 
brown, the large rounded petals lilac-purple, and the lip, as described above, 
has a purple front lobe.—Bot. M. ag., t. 8047. 
Lissocuitus Ucanp#, RotFr.—An interesting addition to the genus, 
which was sent to Kew in 1902, by Mr. John Mahon, then Curator of the 
Botanic Gardens at Entebbe, Uganda, and flowered in the warm house in 
April, 1905. In habit it resembles a large Phaius, and the elongate, 
ligulate, plicate leaves are two to three feet long by about an inch broad. 
The scape is about 3+ feet high, and bears about two dozen flowers, having 
reflexed greenish sepals tipped with brown, and the petals and lip bright 
yellow. It is most allied to L. lata 
» Rolfe, a species not in cultivation.— 
Bot. Mag., t. 8044.
