ovate, obtuse to slightly emarginate at the recurved or subrevolute 
apex, obtusely keeled on the back, with an appendage arising from 
the middle of the inner face at the top of a broad thick and fleshy 
somewhat V-shaped keel, which is produced into a minute tooth 
on each side of the base of the appendage, and connected to the 
thickened margins by very short transverse ridges (these latter and 
the keel are sometimes invisible in dried flowers); appendage 
21-25 lin. long, stout, triquetrous-subulate, rather abruptly recurved

The corolla is described by Schlechter as being ‘‘ glabrous within,” but in the 
type and all other specimens examined, I find it very distinctly puberulous om 
the inner face.
