Chænactis f

1. Alternative form of Chaenactis
   • 1890, Alice Eastwood in Zoe; Volume II, page #231:

     It differs from typical Chænactis chiefly in the simple leaves, prominent midvein of the palæ, and scapose inflorescence.   It might perhaps represent a new genus, but it seems better to regard it as an aberrant species of Chænactis.
