Discussion

In the flora area, subsp. psilophylla is found in Miami-Dade County. Specimens of subsp. amorphoides from Mexico and Central America are, in general, more robust with longer, narrower fruits. Plants of subsp. amorphoides occur in a wider variety of habitats and are not obligate on limestone formations as are those of subsp. psilophylla.
