THE ORCHID REVIEW. 
Vor. I.] SEPTEMBER, 1893. [No. 9. 
NOTES. 
Two meetings of the Royal Horticultural Society will be held at the Drill 
Hall, James Street, Victoria Street, Westminster, during September, on the 
12th and 26th respectively, when the Orchid Committee will meet at 12 
noon, The usual Certificates are offered. 
Another decade of New Orchids described by Mr. Rolfe appeared in the 
July number of the Kew Bulletin, which was issued late in the month. 
These are noticed on a later page. 
The first part of the volume of Martius’ Flora Brasiliensis devoted to 
Orchids has appeared; also the commencement of a work devoted to 
figures of South African Orchids, by Mr. Bolus. Both are reviewed else- 
where. 
An additional species of Coryanthes has now flowered in cultivation, 
making the fourth addition to the genus in less than that number of years. 
It is the remarkable C. Wolfii, a native of Ecuador, and Mr. F. W. Moore, 
of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, has apparently the honour of 
flowering it first in Europe. . 
Information with regard to the remarkable genus Catasetum is slowly 
accumulating, as the female flowers of C. maculatum have now appeared at 
Kew. It is fortunate that these plants have lately received more attention. 
Their sportive character is now well-known, and we hope that any of. our 
Teaders who may flower both sexes. on the same plant, or female flowers 
only, will let us see them.
