Species Description

Simplex Group. Small. Basal leaves entire. Capsules suffused reddish-brown, distinctly longer than wide with concave sides, deep notch not succeeded by style and lobes quarter-circular (curved inner edge and straight outer edge), divergent with a peak approximately 1/3 of the way from the outer tip. Pedicels suberect, about the same length as the capsules. Possibly the same as this - says var. rubellaeformis or C. concava.
