As the name of this species implies, similarity with C. glaziovii is so strong, that usually 
it was mistaken for this one. At first time, it seemed that differences in pubescence where just 
minor variations within populations of C. glaziovii; but the presence (in C. pseudoglaziovii) of 
wavy to curly hairs on lower leaf surface, along with the occurrence of more than one pair of 
primary domatia, secondary domatia usually distinct, and tepals partially persistent, supported 
the recognition of the new taxon. Besides, C. pseudoglaziovii has a geographic distribution that 
does not overlaps with C. glaziovii, which strengthen the decision of considering two distinct 
entities.
