Soyaux, 243, differs in some respects from typical L. Dinklagei, and may possibly 

 represent a distinct species. The internodes are longer, and the lateral nerves of the 

 leaves less oblique. The persistent calyx, which forms a cup crowning the berry, is 

 shorter and broader than in the type.
