Schleehter in hia last letter to mo takes on a querulous 
mood. low that the shoe is on the other foot it pinches him a bit. 
He is disturbed because of Sohedulae Orchidianae. He is at a loss 
to know how to overcome the lack of types. He says that I have 
records of everything of his, but that he has nothing of mine. He 
wonders how he can get on with his work on Stelis now that I have 
published a number of new ones from Codta Rica. 
I hope your Chiriqui trip turned up some good things. It will 
be such a source of ^oy to have the types here! We must keep busy 
and pile up such a herbarium that the Central American flora will be 
oure forever. 
I did not take the trouble to send Honduran plants to you for 
the simple reason that I found almost everything in flower and 
was able to determine most of the species in the field. I think for 
the present that it will be best for you to concentrate on the 
Panama orchids. They will take up enough room in your garden to 
keep you pretty busy. And there will be no chance for confusion. 
rSven if you use plain sheets of tin in your press you will 
find that the moisture does not penetrate from one specimen to the 
next. Heat, however, is the great secret. 
Youn Rpidendrum lorigolium is surely nothing but E. imatophyllum 
I am devoting a page to this species in Sohed. Orch. 4. 
I must drop this letter now, as I want to pus& ahead with my 
work on lankestar’a material 
With the best of good wishes. 
Yours sincerely, 
G, a
