Taxonomy
2 The only difference between this variety and the form of var. ribesioides with non-stipitate or shortly stipitate fig receptacles is the absence of uncinate hairs. In the species the uncinate hairs varies in length, and absence of uncinate hairs could be explained by the strongly reduced length of the hairs, which then can only become curved. The ostiole tend to be wider and not clearly sunken in this variety.
1Initially, Corner treated this taxon as a variety of F. recurva, but later (1960), he decided to raise it (again) to the species level.
