is known from three localities, two of which have vouchered herbarium collections. TFO project made many unvouchered observations of the plant in the Cusseque and Cacuchi River valleys and it is clear that there are extensive populations of this species. There are no significant threats to these nutrient-poor grasslands rich in geoxylic suffrutices as the environment is not conducive to agricultural development.

In contrast, an undescribed species encountered in central Angola flowers at ground level on short, prostrate above-ground shoots and is here formally described as
