Description

From Hollick (1930) (p. 49)

"Plate 12, Figures 1, 2"

"Leaves flabelliform, subtriangular, curved above, truncate below and abruptly constricted to a narrow, elongated, wedge-shaped base, long petiolate; margin crenulate or coarselv crenate-dentate above, entire in the basilar part; nervation fine, flabellate, dichotomously forked."

 

Remarks

From Hollick (1930) (p. 49)

"This well-marked species is apparently distinct from any heretofore described. Immediately above the narrow, wedge-shaped basilar extension the margin curves abruptly and extends almost horizontally to the extremities of the broadest part of the leaf, where it turns abruptly and continues on each side in the form of a gentle convex curve to the summit."
