Notes
Mettenius described the indusia of both C. hymenodes and C. korthalsii as breaking (fatiscens) but they are in almost all cases flat dises with an entire margin which gives no sign of having been formed by the breakdown of a complete indusium. In both types some of the indusia are hemitelioid, some are symmetrical about the receptacle as centre. Probably the hemitelioid indusia are more abundant in the type of C. korthalsii.
