Notes

This species was confused with C. junghuhniana by v.A.v.R. and others, as indicated by their determination of specimens in herbaria. The two species grow side by side in the forest above Tjibodas, and in my experience are quite distinct in size, shape of pinnules, scales on costae, and in pneumathodes of stipe.
