Notes
Var. papillosa has been recognised on the basis of its papillose or shortly hairy calyx-tube, but this distinction does not seem meaningful. For example, in the collection Gillett & al. 25137 (K) there are two otherwise identical individuals, one with a papillose and one with a glabrous calyx.
