Large plant with habit of C. curculigoides. Leaves ovate- 
lanceolate long-acuminate, narrowed to base, 3 ft. long, 5-5 in. 
wide; petioles 9 in. long. Raceme stout, nearly 2 ft, tall. Flowers 
very numerous, orange yellow. Bracts caducous. Sepals ovate 
mueronulate, *15 in. long. Petals obovate sub-acute wider. Lip 
rather short, 3-lobed, side-lobes oblong blunt short, midlobe 
obovate-obtriangular refuse, callus of two papillose keels, spur 
shorter than ovary, clubbed-shaped blunt. Ovary and pedicel 
slender, *5 in. long. Hab. Mountain forests at 3000 to 4000 ft. 
altitude. Perak, Gunong Batu Putih (Wray); Thaiping Hills 
(Kunstler). Distrib. Java. 
The specimen of Hooker’s Q. Scortechinii is poor but it may be this species; 
J. J. Smith identifies Kunstler's plant with C. speciosa, and is probably 
right; its flowers are identical with those of Lindley’s type.
