a mass of Guatemala Orchidaceae bought at one of Mr. 
Skinner’s sales. It is in the way of A. pedunculata, but the 
flowers are larger, the border is much more flat, and the 
colour is a deep rich rose instead of the clear orange of A. 
pedunculata. We hope soon to be able to figure this. 
104. EPXDENDRXJM limbatum. 
E .limbatum (Encyclium) ; omnino facie E. glauci, sed sepalis petalisque sub- 
rotundo-ovatis, columnse appendice truncata dentata tenui, floribus 
duplo majoribus. 
A Guatemala plant, purchased by Messrs. Loddiges at one 
of Mr. Skinner’s sales. It has quite the habit of E. glaucum, 
but is much larger, and its flowers have roundish sepals and 
petals, like those of E. squalidum. The appendage at the 
back of the anther is thin, truncate and toothed, not rounded, 
fleshy and entire. It flowered in August last. The name 
alludes to a narrow yellowish border which surrounds the dull 
purplish brown sepals and petals. It has a very slight smell, 
like that of cobler’s wax.

emarginatis, scapo paniculato, labelli laciniis lateralibus triangulaiibus 
intermedia elongata lineari disco bilamellato, columnae biacliiis 2 glan- 
dulosis. 
A rather pretty small flowered Orchidaceous plant, with 
the habit of Sarcanthus pallidus. Its flowers are white and 
green, with a dull purple stain at the point ot the four seg- 
ments of the perianth, and the same colour on the disk of the 
lip, leaving a white border all round. W e have received it 
from M. Van Houtte of Ghent, who informs us that, it was 
obtained at Bantam, in the virgin forests of Datarbjaay and 
Bodjomanik, on the river Tjileman, by Mr. Adolph 1 apeleu, 
one of the partners in M. Van Houtte s Nursery.
