This species differs from the next in its very taper sepals, in the petals 
being also finely acuminate, in its obsolete bractee, and in the squame 
of the scape being very small, not dilated as in B. odoratissimum. It 
approaches Cirrhopetalum from which it differs in the equal size of its 
sepals, and it forms a transition from Cirrhopetalum to Bolbophyllum.

acuminatis obtusis.
