McVaugh (2001b)––a flowering branch apparently constitutes a complex branching system, potentially producing solitary flowers, groups of flowers, or new branches from any node. Although these observations pertain directly only to <i>C. attenuata</i> (Hooker & Arnott) Cogniaux, they perhaps also apply to the two species included here.</p><!-- --><p>Species ca. 60 (2 in the flora).</p> |tables= |references={{Treatment/Reference |id=duchen2010a |text=Duchen, P. and S.
