his species is distinct in having its tall erect stems unbranched 
above and terminated by a single white flower. In the structure of 
the flower and general appearance of the plant it comes closest to 
C. Verdickii, De Wildem. The calyx in the two plants is very 
similar, but the petals of C. unifora are broader and shorter, and 
like that species it recedes from the other Plocandras in having 
straight anthers. In (C, angolensis, to which this plant also shews 
Some resemblance, the anthers are twisted 
tenues, albo-cinerascentes, laterales apice spinescentes.
