This variety differs from Blume’s description and figure in the longer 
and denser inflorescence with smaller and more spreading flowers, the 
more spathulate petals, broader lip with a shorter blunt apical lobe, and the 
shorter anther. The details of Blume’s figure however need correction.

Amboina, Mahija, Reliquiae Robinsonianae 161Jf, August 7, 1913, altitude 
250 meters. Terrestrial, in humus, the flowers yellow, turning brown, 
then red; fruit green; leaves purplish-green. 
As Reichenbach’s description of this species is insufficient, the identity 
of Robinson’s specimen is not certain.
