The collections of this species from eastern

differ somewhat from the
<typeStatus box="[1110,1157,366,387]" pageId="10" pageNumber="1077">type</typeStatus>
in that they have longer pubescence, darker stems that are densely sand-punctate (vs. light tan, non-punctate stems), inflorescences with less dense and coarser pubescence, and non-punctate calyces. The Peruvian collection is closer to the

<collectingCountry box="[1008,1097,512,534]" name="Ecuador" pageId="10" pageNumber="1077">Ecuador</collectingCountry>
, but the plant appears to be rather fleshy. It is possible that the two variants from the regions east of the Andes merit recognition at the species level; however, they have no unambiguous, qualitative differences and, since this species has been collected few times, there is currently insufficient material upon which to base further taxonomic decisions.
