NOVELTIES. 
Eacu of the two latest issues of the Kew Bulletin contains a Decade of 
New Orchids, of which the following is a brief summary :— 
BuLBOPHYLLUM KERRI, Rolfe.—A Siamese species collected by Dr. 
Arthur Kerr on deciduous trees on mountains round Chiengmai, at 2,000 
feet elevation. It is allied to B. hirtum, Lindl., and has racemes of very 
hairy yellow flowers, and deciduous foliage. It recently flowered at the 
Trinity College Botanic Garden, Dublin, and proves identical with a plant 
which flowered at Glasnevin in January, 1g01.--Kew Bulletin, 1906, p. 84. 
BULBOPHYLLUM CAPITULIFLORUM, Rolfe.—A species imported with and 
resembling B. intertextum, Lindl., in habit, but having the flowers 
aggregated in small heads, and the colour whitish green, suffused with 
purple-brown towards the apex, and a lurid purple lip. It flowered at 
Glasnevin in October, 1900.—l.c., p. 84. 
CALANTHE MADAGASCARIENSIS, Rolfe.—A Madagascar species, intro- 
duced by M. Warpur, which flowered at Kew in August, 1900, being 
subsequently figured in the Botanical Magazine (t. 7780). It is allied to 
the Mauritian C. sylvatica, Lindl., and has flowers varying from white to 
lilac in the sepals and petals, and the lip from yellow to purple.—/.c. p. 84. 
CALANTHE WarpuR!I, Rolfe.—Allied to the preceding, but different in 
structure, and having lilac to white sepals and petals, and a dark purple 
lip with a deep yellow crest. It was introduced with the preceding, and 
flowered at Kew a few weeks later.—l.c. p. 85. 
CaTTLEYA JENMANI, Rolfe.—A British Guiana species, allied to C. 
Gaskelliana, Sander, but having much broader leaves and smaller flowers. 
It was discovered at the sources of the Mazaruni River by the late Mr. 
G. S. Jenman, Government Botanist, and flowered in the collection of Miss 
Sinnock, Downford, Hailsham, Sussex. The Howers are rosy mauve with 
the disc of the lip yellow veined with red-brown, and the front lobe of the 
lip crimson.—l.c. p. 85. 
PSEUDOGLOSSASPIS ARGENTINA, Rolfe-—Remarkable as an Argentine 
representative of the African genus Pteroglossaspis, of which four species 
were previously known. It was discovered by M. Stuckert, in the Rio 
Primero Valley, near Cordoba, and is not in cultivation.—/.c. p. 36. 
CATASETUM EBURNEUM, Rolfe.—A species of the Pseudocatasetum 
group having long racemes of ivory-white flowers, quite unlike those of any 
other species in the genus. It was imported from the Cattleya Mendelii 
district by Messrs. Charlesworth & Co., Heaton, Bradford, and flowered 
in their nursery in September, 1900.—l.c. p. 86. 
AERANTHES RAMOSA, Rolfe—A Madagascar species which flowered at 
Glasnevin in October, 1901, and proved identical with one introduced by
