Notes
Apparently a rare species; available flower material unfortunately rather inadequate. VAN ROYEN noted: flowers white at base of tube pale purple; SOEGENG: tube dirty yellow, lobes lilac. The petiolar glands were not mentioned by DIELS in his brief description, but I noted them on the type (1927).
