This species agrees in the substance of its leaves with Calym- 
peres lonchophyllum, but is more rigid, the leaves retaining their 
position when dry, those of the lower portions of the stems being 
mostly broken off below their middle. The margin, although 
evidently thickened, does not differ in its areolation from the 
other parts of the leaf.
