A small species which. was found by Messrs.. F. Sander & Co. ina 
clump of Cattleya harrisoniana, Batem,, having flowered in their 
establishment in i RES of the present year.: It belongs to Lindley's 
—À Brachystachye, and is allied to P. Xu schiana, Rc hile 
in s ans general abit it is comparable to P. souderana, Rchb. f 
The f ers are wholly deep yellow. No puel ue can be found 
which ignes with it, and so small a plant might easily be overlooked, 
especially in this large genus, even in a region so comparatively well 
known.

additions to this group have recently appeared, though dita padhas fit 
the present plant, which is consequently considered to be new. The 
flowers are yellowish green, with several light purple lines on the base 
of the sepals, a broader purple band on the lower half of the petals, and 
numerous radiating purple lines on the lip, which become slightly 
reticulated ont the front lobe. Tt is a robust growing plant.
