sed dorso usque ad basin fissum coalita, crassa, coriaceo-lignosa, apice in lobos concavos inflexos (numquam 
patentes) divisa: stammet 6, recta, corolla paulo breviora, circiter ad tertiana partem inferiorem vel interdum 
paulo inferius aftixa, manifeste decurrentia (i. e. parte basali corolla aecreta); filamenta antheris paulo 
breviora, ubique aequilata; antherae basi affixae (vel recte thecae filamenti dorso affixae), erectae, line- 
ares; thecae rimis longitudinalibus lateraliter déhiscentes; discus epigynus lobato-quinquangularis, carnosulus,
