ProfilePROFILE

Broad leaves open flat and radially into a star-shaped rosette. White trichomes give the surface a silvery-white cast, with the green ground still showing through along the lengthwise stripes. The marginal teeth are small and hooked, widely spaced, their tips tinged brown. The leaf surface itself, white and green running together in stripes, is the main feature of this species.

In GBIF specimen records the distribution centres on Minas Gerais, with single outlying records in Goiás and Bahia (see “Species Distributions”).
