side-lobes. No, 2 has a short, rather broad front lobe with dark blotch on lip, which is 
flatter and less crisped than usual. No. 3 is very handsome with the deep purple running 
right round the apex of the side-lobes, and the front lobe ee much crisped, and beauti- 
fully veined. No. 4 is about typical erm x elega

Lindl., is D. Linawianum. Cattleya Trianz is correct,. 
C. Trianzi, Cypripedium siamense, Rolfe, i is described in Gard. Chron., i i. De
