Fruit warty but without stellate hairs (Fig. 33E ), thin (0.25-0.50 mm) in cross-section. Taxonomic note. The type variety can probably be synonymised with C. hilariae ( Iljin 1936 ) due to (i) glabrous stems and the same general habit and (ii) triangular fruit tip and presence of warts in some fruits (variable character). The subulate fruit apex, reported as a peculiar characteristic for C. dutreuilii , seems to vary in many specimens. If the merger of both species is to be confirmed, C. hilariae is the priority name. Here, we maintain the specific rank of C. dutreuilii , dividing it into two varieties (also, see comments on C. dutreuilii var. montanum ). Distribution. See Fig. 35 . Figure 35.
