Caulis pedalis et ultra, superné foliosus, crassitie penne gallinacez, teres, pilosus, pilis 
densis patentibus nitidis pallidé flavis. Folia uncialia, coriacea, pilis appressis sericea,

tomentoso ; glomerulis florum basi bracteatis, bracteolis majusculis, ovatis, acutis, pilosis. 
The bractez on the spike at the base of the male flowers are the largest of 
any of the species here described, and are rather longer than the pedicels of 
the flowers themselves. A very distinct species.
