THE ORCHID WORLD. 
has been even further extended by Mr. 
Charlesworth, who hnked up Mihonia, 
showing Miltonwda Hnrwoodii on July 6th, 
1909, at Holland House, and Miltonioda 
Ajax on October 26th, 1909. He also has 
recently pusheid his experiments to a further 
success by showing Oncidioda Charlcs- 
worthii (Oncidium incurviim y^Cochlioda 
Noezliana) at the Royal Horticultural 
Society on August 30th, 1910. Thus have 
we the field for production of " Reds " 
widened to embrace three great 
genera : Odonioglossiini, Miltonia 
and Oncidiinii. Surely this is 
almost enough for anyone to con- 
template, at least for the present. 
The secondaries follow close on 
the heels of this great expansion 
of the " Red area." Mr. Charles- 
worth and M. Ch. Vuylsteke 
apparently bloomed plants about 
the same time, for the former 
showed 0 dontiod a Cassiope 
ipdontoglossuin amabiU x Odon- 
tioda heatoncnsis) on April 5th, 1910; the 
latter bloomed a cross between Uiltonia 
Odonlioia Charlesworthii Theodora. ('' R.H.S. Journal.")

vcxillaria and Odontioda V uylstekcce, which 
was figured in Revue Horiicolc, May, 19 10. 
This plant I propose to call Odontiodonia. 
This is allowable under the present system of 
nomenclature ; but should it be coupled up to 
Oncidium or Brassia, a not unlikely thing, 
then the name of the raiser will 
have a chance of becoming a 
generic cognomen ; but we can 
wait awhile ere we select this, 
being content to have a little 
b/eathing time. 
By way of a parenthetical 
remark I may call attention 
here to the concluding line of 
my article on Odontoglossum 
V uylstekcce {Orchid Review, 
1905, p. 363). On reference to 
it I think, after a perusal of the 
subjoined list, the most exact- 
ing will say that England has 
awakened. 
Referring to my article, 
" Odontiodas," in the Orchid 
Review, 1907, pp. 270-2, we 
can record a distinct advance, 
in that we are able to raise
