OcToBER, 1903.] THE ORCHID REVIEW. 291 
C. Arthuriana (Rchb. f. in Gard. Chron., 1881, i, p- 40) is now considered a 
small-flowered variety of the species. 
P. REICHENBACHIANA (T. Moore in Will. Orch. Gr. Man., ed. 6, p- 551- 
‘Coelogyne Reichenbachiana, Veitch and T. Moore in Gard. Chron., 1868, 
ip. 1210).—Discovered on the mountains near Moulmein at 6,000 to 7,000 
feet elevation, by Col. Benson, who sent it in 1868 to Kew, and to Messrs. 
James Veitch & Sons. It flowers in February and March, but is very 
rarely seen in collections. 
P. HUMILIS (Don Prodr. Fl. Nepal., p. 37; Paxt. Fl. Gard., ii, p. 65: ¢; 
51; Orch. Alb., iii, t. 102. Epidendrum humile, Sm. Exot. Bot., ii, t. 98. 
Ceelogyne humilis, Lindl. Gen. and Sp. Orch., p. 43; Bot. Mag., t. 5674). 
—Discovered by Dr. Francis Buchanan, in Upper Nepal, about a century 
‘ago, and first figured and described by Sir James Smith in 1805. It was intro- 
‘duced to cultivation by Thomas Lobb, who sent it from the Khasia Hills 
to Messrs. James Veitch & Sons, in 1849. It is also found in Sikkim and 
Bhotan, at about 7,000 to 8,000 feet elevation. The lip is very beautifully 
‘fringed, and the flowers vary somewhat in colour. 
P. Hookertana (T. Moore in Will. Orch. Gr. Man., ed. 6, p. 548. 
‘Coelogyne Hookeriana, Lindl. Fol. Orch., Coelog., p. 14; Bot. Mag., t. 6388). 
—Discovered in 1849 by Sir J. D. Hooker in the Sikkim Himalayas, at 
7,000 to 10,000 feet elevation, and introduced to cultivation by H. J. Elwes, 
Esq., in 1877. It is very rare in cultivation. At the higher elevations 
occurs a form with rather shorter lip, known as variety brachyglossa, which 
flowered in the collection of Sir Trevor Lawrence in 1887. 
P. POGONIOIDES (Ccelogyne pogonioides, Rolfe in Kew Bull., 1896, p. 
196) was recently introduced from China, by Messrs. James Veitch & Sons, 
through their collector, Mr. Wilson, but has not yet flowered in cultivation. 
‘The bulbs are said to be used as a drug by the Chinese, under the name of 
** Pei-mu.” It is allied to P. humilis, and, like it, flowers when the leaves 
are partly developed. It seems to be common in the provinces of Hupeh, 
Szechuen, and Anwhei, and was known as early as 1885, when Dr. Hance 
briefly described it as Pogonia sp. (Fourn. Bot., 1885, p. 247). Dr. Henry 
‘describes the flowers as pink. Ccelogyne Henryi (Rolfe, l.c., p. 195) is now 
believed to be a form of the same species. 
There are four other Chinese species not yet introduced to cultivation, as 
follows :— 
P. BULBOCopDIOIDEs (Ceelogyne bulbocodioides, Franch. Pl. David., ii. p. 
122), found in Eastern Thibet by the Abbé David, and Kweichau by Faurie. 
It is allied to P. pogonioides. 
P. DELavayi (Coelogyne Delavayi, Rolfe in Kew Bull., 1896, p. 195), 
found in Yunnan by Delavay, and an ally of the preceding species. 
P. GRANDIFLORA (Coelogyne grandiflora, Rolfe in Journ. Linn. Soc., xxxvi,
