Tristerix longebracteatus (Desr.) Barlow & Wiens

W.H. Camp, No. E-1975
Tips of corolla lobes orange-scarlet, sharply r eflexed at an thesis; central portion
orange; base scarlet. Fruit nigrescent. This growing as an independent plant on soil;
but on several occasions small plants with very similar leaves were seen growing as
parasites where this species was common. At no time were these plants in flower; nor
did they seem very healthy. Without the flowers, one could not be certain that these
were the same species, but they appeared to be.
