368 THE ORCHID REVIEW. [DecEMBER, 1903- 
PAPHIOPEDILUM CONCOLOR AND P. BELLATULUM. 
THE annexed figures of the two beautiful species, Paphiopedilum concolor 
and P. bellatulum, are reproduced from photographs sent by Mr. G. Walker, 
of St. John’s Wood, in connection with the question of the origin of 
P. Godefroyz leucochilum, discussed a few pages earlier (pp. 359-362). 
These, together with P. niveum (figured on page 273) and P. Godefroye 
form a very distinct section of the genus, and the different forms are very 
popular in gardens. With the single exception of the original P. Godefroye, 
Fic. 55- PAPHIOPEDILUM CONCOLOR. 
all are figured in the present volume, including two artificial hybrids which 
have been raised. 
P. CONCOLOR (fig. 55) was the first known species of the group. It was 
discovered by the Rev. C. Parish, in 1859, at a place called Pya-Thonz0? 
near Moulmein, growing in hollows in the rock, that are filled with decayi"$ 
vegetable matter, and was introduced to cultivation in 1864, by Messts- 
Hugh Low & Co. Subsequently it was found on the Birds’-Nest Islands
