A very distinet species, which was found growing MEC with 
rhizomes of ZLecanopteris carnosa, Blume, sent to Kew by Mr. C. 
Curtis, of the Forest Department, Penang. It flowered in the collection 
from the imbricating sheaths which protect the young pseudobulb and 
leaf, but the majority are borne at the nodes below the mature pseudo- 
bulbs, each being protected at die base by a number of imbricating 
sheaths. 'The flowers are white, and rather under a quarter of an ine 
in diameter. 'Phe specific name is given in allusion to the plant's habit 
of growing intermixed with the rhizomes of the fern, which, however, 
may not be constant.

The third species of this curious little group, which Lindley con- 
sidered as a section of Epi Khi ado Bes Bentham afterwards 
elevated it to the rank of a distinct gen t was found in a clump of 
Cattleya guttata by Major-General E. 8. Berkeley, Eo Bitterne 
Park, pma sir whom it flowered in Januar and now 
Messrs. F. Sander & Co., St. Albans, haye ai lowered it ina their 
Brazilian japania _It is easily distinguished from L. Avicula, 
pseudobulbs and mises and less branched raceme. The flowers are 
light green with numerous minute red-brown dots on the sepals, petals, 
and base of the cola
