Description
Summary:(1) Plants are small and densely branched; (2) branches are often with cuspidate tips; (3) stem leaves are short-lanceolate, distinctly constricted above, forming undulation above shoulder, and often twisted or inrolled spirally; (3) leaf margins are denticulate to serrate above, denticulate below with simple teeth; (4) costae are strong; (5) lamina cells are smooth to prorulate, with a few spines above; (6) branch leaves strongly plicate, flexuose or inrolled spirally; margins are more serrate than stem leaves; (7) setae are 7 - 8 mm long, densely papillose half above, and sparingly papillose below; (8) Calyptrae (immature) are cucullate, hispid all over surface, and bases are naked but with a few short hairs.
