+ THE ORCHID REVIEW. 
A number of others described within the year must be classed as botani- 
cal Orchids, though several of them are very interesting and pretty. The 
following five flowered at Kew:—Angrecum bistortum, Sarcochilus mus- 
cosus, Megaclinium minutum, Bulbophyllum vitiense, and B. viride. Three 
flowered at Glasnevin; namely, Physosiphon Lindleyi, Pleurothallis pube- 
rula, and Pelexia maculata, the latter having been introduced by Messrs. 
Hugh Low and Co. Several others flowered with Messrs. Linden, of 
Brussels, as follows :—Neodryas Sacciana, a very interesting little plant, 
Oncidium zonatum, Coelogyne borneensis, C. tenuis, Cirrhopetalum Brienia- 
num, and Bulbophyllum longispicatum. From Messrs. F. Sander and Co. 
came — Bulbophyllum Sanderianum, Epidendrum Laucheanum, and E. 
pumilum. Messrs. Hugh Low and Co. flowered Luisia Amesiana and 
Epidendrum tricolor. Habenaria cinnabarina is an interesting Madagascar 
species which flowered with Messrs. W. L. Lewis and Co., while Pleuro- 
thallis rhombipetala appeared with Messrs. Charlesworth, Shuttleworth and 
Co. The following three species flowered in the collection of Sir Trevor 
Lawrence, Bart., Burford, Dorking :—Bulbophyllum racemosum, Oncidium 
luteum, and Polystachya Lawrenceana, the latter having been imported by 
Mr, J. O’Brien, of Harrow-on-the-Hill, who also flowered it. Polystachya 
imbricata and Bulbophyllum spathaceum flowered with Mr. O’Brien, the 
latter from Messrs. Hugh Low and Co’s importations. Pholidota Lugardii 
flowered with Sir John Kirk, of Wavertree, Sevenoaks, who received it from 
Captain Lugard. Saccolabium Mooreanum flowered at Glasnevin, Burford, 
and Warnham Court, from Messrs. F. Sander’s importations; while Eria 
albiflora flowered with Mr. J. O’Brien and at Kew. A few others which 
have been described will probably go to swell the already too numerous list 
of synonyms. 
Among new varieties may be ace :—Dendrobium nobile Ballianum 
and D. n. Amesiz, introduced by Messrs. F. Sander and Co.; Ansellia 
milotica Rossiana, from the collection of H. J. Ross, Esq., of Florence ; 
Cattleya intermedia picturata, from M. M. Cappe et fils, Vésinet, France ; 
Cypripedium Bullenianum var. Appletonianum, from the collection of W. 
M. Appleton, Esq., of Weston-super-Mare ; Cypripedium insigne Ernesti, 
from the collection of R. I. Measures, Esq., of Camberwell; and several 
others. 
Five very interesting natural hybrids have appeared, as follows :—Lzlia 
x Finckeniana (see p. g, fig. 1); Lelio-cattleya x albanense, imported 
by Messrs. F. Sander and Co.; Cattleya x Patrocinii from M. A. A- 
Peeters, of Brussels ; Miltonia Joleen: which flowered in the collection 
of Major Joicey, of Sunningdale Park; and Oncidium x Wheatleyanum, 
which appeared with Mr. F. Wheatley, of Ringmore, Teignmouth. The: 
latter was probably derived from O. crispum and O. dasytyle. 
The garden hybrids of the year are very numerous, some of them being —
