Paraguayan collections are generally housed at G. After consulting several herbaria, we found a specimen at NY herbarium, two specimens at G, and one at BM that matched the protologue. Thus, we selected as the lectotype the specimen at G which shows the typical deflexed pedicel characteristic of this species.

, sheaths with a few scattered long glandular hairs, blades with strongly undulate margins, short congested inflorescence, and very short pedicels. Nevertheless, it possesses the same inflorescence architecture, capsules with glandular hairs, and 2-seeded locules. We believe that the blades with strongly undulate margins may be a result of the drying process. Thus, we consider that these collections

merit any taxonomic recognition.
