Magis suffruticosa, minus pubescens ; calycis dentes ovati. 
Trautvetter, in examining Schrenk’s specimens, was unable to find any 
traces of lateral lobes in the limb of the petals, which appeared to be bifid 
like those of S. Montbretiana. He thinks, therefore, that it might be 
referred to S. longiflora, as a suffruticose and narrow-leaved form of that 
Species (Bull. Soc. Nat. Mose., 1860, p.158). There are no specimens in 
Herb. Kew.
