This noteworthy species clearly belongs to the § Campyloclinium 
having the large heads and exceedingly convex receptacle of the group, 
but otherwise possessing many marked differences from previously 
described species. It was one of many plants obtained for horticul- 
tural purposes by J. Linden from northern South America in the 50's, 
but it has been impossible to find any horticultural records of the 
plant, which presumably failed to succeed in cultivation. The only 
field notes to be derived from the label are that the plant was shrubby 
and had roseate flowers. Whether the color was derived from the 
corollas or a composite impression of corollas and suffused involucral 
scales cannot now be told.
