The stem is very long and attached to the bark of trees by roots 

 of a considerable length; the habit of the plant resembles that of some 

 peperomioid plants , from where I borrowed the name. The species 

 which we may consider to be the nearest to it is perhaps Saccolabium 

 bipunctatum Par. Sc Rchb. f. (referred to Cleisostoma by Sir Jos. Hooker) 

 a very imperfectly known species from Tenasserim ; it has the same 

 habit, the same manner of growth, the same very short inflorescences of 

 1 or rarely 2 flowers and even some very slight resemblance in the flower, 

 but no character is identical in both species.
