Oudh, Diithie's collcotor No. 22797; Mussoorio range up to 6,000 foot, Mackinnon

6,000 feet; Bashahr at 7,000 feet. Lace No. 880; banks of the Smni river near
Abbottabad in Ilazâra at about 3,000 feet, Colonel Barrett; Gujai- Valley in the
Chitral district, found by Sir W. Gatacre in 1895. It dowers during Blarch and April.
This species ia closely allied to E. campssins. It diSers ohiefly by its shortor scapes, larger
flowers and the shorter and more deusc racemes; the shape of the lip and the general colouring of
t h e flower are also very diSerent. E. campestris is esEeutially a spoeies of the plaios of India,
whereas E. Jlormusjii estenda up to tha temperate region of the Himalaya, where the dimatio
conditions are more favourable for leaf development. I have named this species after Mr. H.
H o r m u s j i Deboo, who has -worked for many years as artist in the Botanical Department of Northern
I n d i a , and by -nhom all the drawings for this Tolume have been prepared.
