History, Use, Propagation, Culture, 
down their long shoots almost in the same manner as the Miseltoe in England. The flowers are generally very 
beautiful, and frequently highly fragrant : they vary from a deep yellow to nearly white. All the species in 
the gardens are cultivated without the least difficulty by being planted in any light vegetable earth. Sometimes 
they are put in baskets among damp moss, but they do not succeed so well under that treatment as when 
planted in earth. 
1901. Camaridium. Named by Mr. Lindley, from xa,fji,ot,oce,, an arched roof. The stigma of this genus has 
the upper lip vaulted in a remarkable degree. An inelegant leafy caulescent bulbous epiphyte, with solitary 
white flowers. 
1902. Ornithidium. From o^viB-i;, a bird, in allusion to the resemblance which exists between the cuspidate 
upper lip of the stigma, and a bird's beak. The habit of this plant is like that of the last, but the flowers 
are red. They are both cultivated without difficulty in a stove, by being planted among rotten wood, 
or tan. 
Mr. Salisbury says, Ornithidium coccineum is a parasite on old trees, near torrents, in the island of Martinico; 
its fibrous roots insinuating themselves into the crevices of their moist bark. Here it thrives exceedingly, in 
pots filled with the same, flowering at various seasons, but chiefly in October and November. During summer 
it should be placed in a shady part of the stove, and often sprinkled with water, but it requires little or none 
in winter, especially when plunged. 
1903. Isochilus. From icro;, equal, and ;t;£;Ao?, a lip, because the lip and the other divisions of the flower are 
of nearly equal breadth. The species grow in baskets of moss and old tan, or planted in pots' of sandy soil, 
and chips of wood, and other dry rubbish. They are increased by divisions at the root. 
1904. Pholidota. A singular bulbous epiphyte, native of Nepal, remarkable for the close manner in which 
the flowers are covered over by the imbricated scale-like bractea^, from which circumstance {(poXi;, a scale), we
