Fayal. 
A plant of the aspect of the preceding, but with rather smaller 
flowers, which differs in the technical generic character of having 
the shorter but still broadly ovate bractlets unconnected into an 
outer cup, in its open fruiting calyx, and in having the ten mature 
carpels less rounded on the back, so that the outline of the cluster 
is less crenated.

Corvo (74, 75). Fayal. San Jorge (Brown, 31). 
San Miguel. Sta. Maria (75, a). 
Differs from the last in its glabrous petal claws, narrowly linear 
bractlets, and carpels with the dorso-lateral margin elevated into 
a usually toothed wing.

Fayal, and perhaps other islands.— Doubtful. 
Differs in its oblong bractlets, often reflexed fruiting pedicels, 
and more crenate fruit of about fourteen wingless carpels.
