Therefore we believe that the synonymy established by Bentham 
is not well founded and the two species of Tulasne must be 
maintained. (Cf. Benth. in Mart. Fl. Bras. 15%: 252.)

This Cyxometra differs from nearly all other species by its very 
large and acuminate leaves. It resembles C. ¢réndtensis Oliv., but 
differs in having a glabrous calyx, longer peduncles and thinner 
leaves. Our species must be placed close to C. Hostmanniana, 
the latter differing however by its glabrous peduncles and smaller 
flowers; the petals are only about 4 mm. long.
