“92 THE ORCHID REVIEW. [ Marcu, 1903. 
-varieties Dido, Luna, and pallens, and D. x chlorostele var. xanthrocentron. 
Lastly may be mentioned a pretty hybrid from D. X Rubens X aureum, 
‘which so closely resembles D. Ainsworthii as not to be worth a separate 
name. And it only differs in having one-eighth more D. aureum in its 
composition. The flowers are creamy white, with the usual dark maroon 
feathered disc. 
A very interesting selection is sent from the collection of J. E. Vanner 
-Esq., Camden Wood, Chislehurst, by Mr. Robbins. _ It includes a fine 
form of Lelia Jongheana, a richly coloured Cattleya Trianz called Robert 
Measures, having a dark purple band on the petals, the fragrant little 
Dendrobium xX endocharis, Phragmipedilum pulchellum, and several good 
‘Paphiopedilums. P. x Vanneri (Calypso X Chamberlainianum) is much 
finer than the one described at page 190 of our ninth volume, and is from 
another seedling. The others are, the richly-coloured P. X Creon, a fine 
example of P. x Harrisianum superbum, P. xX Lathamianum, P. X 
Pitcherianum Williams’ var, an extremely fine thing, P. x Madiotianum, 
P. xX Calypso Cooksoni, and three forms of the seedling mentioned at 
page 124 of our last volume as of uncertain parentage, but which we now 
think are forms of P. X Menelik (P. X Calypso x Boxallii). The seed 
parent is known, for a plant of P. x Calypso (Spicerianum x Boxallii) 
was purchased when bearing the capsule from which they were raised, 
but the pollen parent was recorded as P. bellatulum. But this is clearly 
-erroneous. The flowers are three-fourths Boxallii in character, and the 
-dorsal sepal handsomely spotted. 
Paphiopedilum x Leeanum westonense is a beautiful variety from the 
-collection of W. M. Appleton, Esq., of Weston-super-Mare, in which the 
‘spots on the dorsal sepal are large and regularly arranged, in which 
‘Tespect it approaches P. x L. Albertianum. A curious hybrid with the 
record P. superbiens X Godefroyz leucochilum is also sent, which much 
resembles P. niveum somewhat enlarged and more spotted. There is said 
to be no trace of P. superbiens in the plant. Perhaps a solution of the 
mystery will be possible hereafter. 
A very good form of Paphiopedilum exul is sent from the collection of 
Mrs. Grogan, Slaney Park, Baltinglass, Co. Wicklow, the ground colour of 
the flower being more yellow than usual, and the disc of the . dorsal sepal 
and base of the petals very prettily spotted. Very good of Dendrobium X 
Ainsworthit and D. xX A. roseum are also sent, with two pretty hybrids 
raised in the collection. The first, from D. primulinum xX Ainsworthil 
roseum, must be referred to D. x Achilles, and most resembles the latter 
4n colour, but the disc is very large and dark, and the shape exceptionally 
round and good. The other is from D. Findlayanum xX Ainsworthii 
roseum, and must be referred to D. X melanodiscus.
