Monosiphonic, unbranched stems, up to 70 mm high, divided into internodes. Angle between cauline apophyses and stem ca. 45°. Cauline apophyses with three nematophores, two axillary ones (Fig. 6 B), each emerging through simple hole in perisarc, and a third nematophore emerging through ‘mamelon’ (Fig. 6 A–B). Hydrocladia unbranched (Fig. 6 A) or bifurcated. Mesial-inferior nematophore emerging from strongly marked swelling at proximal third of internode (Fig. 6 D); without nematotheca (Fig. 6 C–D). Hydrotheca placed on middle of internode (Fig. 6 A, C–D). Hydrotheca elongate. Adcauline wall mostly adnate, but with a distinct free portion (Fig. 6 D). Abcauline wall almost straight, but slightly convex basally and typically with ... : Published as part of Molinero, A. González & Peña Cantero, A.
