Kauai: Wawra no. 2012, 2157 in herb. Vienna, and portion of type 
of no. 2012 in herb. College of Hawaii; Hanapepe fall. Abbe Faurie, 
flowering Dec. 1909, no. 625 (distributed as C. oenobarba Mann), in 
the herb. College of Hawaii, as no. 12520. 
A distinct variety, differing from the species in the long petioles, 
very short peduncle, and pedicels; it is identical with Wawra's var. 
rotundifolia which seems to differ from it only in the glabrous leaves.
