+"This is a common species in Venezuela and in the "cerrado" of central Brazil but has been collected only once in the study area. A distinctive feature of the species is the petals which are entire for about .08" [2 mm] from the base and then divided above. The species was mistakenly identified as H. setacea by Hoehne (1940, tab. 105, Figure 3), Pabst & Dungs (1975, Figure 140) and Renz (1992), and as H. mesodactyla Griseb. by Dunsterville & Garay (1979). Flowers are completely green and the species occurs in dry or seasonally humid places."
