This has <strong>the</strong> exact habit <strong>of</strong> G. gracilis, Hook f., a native<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> upper part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Larut Hills, near Gunong Hijan. I<br />

find, however, that <strong>the</strong> two calli in <strong>the</strong> base <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> lip are<br />

connate into one blunt thick round-tipped <strong>org</strong>an, and that <strong>the</strong><br />

pollinia are longer and narrower, with <strong>the</strong> linear disc more than<br />

half as long as <strong>the</strong> pollen-mass.<br />
