LC Indigenous Endemic

Morphological description

Bulb solitary, subglobose, 5-14 mm diam., with thinly fibrous greyish-brown outer tunics, whitish and fleshy within; neck slender, up to 75 mm long. Leaves well developed or rarely absent at anthesis, 4-6, with only 1-4 exserted at a time, spreading, straight or curled, filiform, hemiterete, 30-150 x 1 mm, glabrous, shiny green, subtended by a non-amplexicaul prophyll; cataphyll lacking; seedling glabrous. Inflorescence sparse, up to 65 mm across; scape slender, 25-210 mm long, 0.5-1.0 mm diam., spirally twisted and reddish brown basally, otherwise suberect, stiff and green; persisting and remaining green for several months after seed-release; spathe valves linear-lanceolate, 5-20 x 1-2 mm; bracteoles not visible. Flowers 1-5, slightly spreading, funnel-shaped, pure white or flushed with pink abaxially, occasionally greenish yellow in the throat, buff-coloured when withered, sometimes scented; with the innermost flowers of the cymes often aborting; pedicels ascending, filiform, 5-50 mm long, green. Tepals connate basally into a tube 3-4 mm long, expanding gradually upwards to 2.5-3.0 mm across at the throat, spreading, oblong-lanceolate, 7-14 x 2.0-3.5 mm. Stamens 6, suberect, only shortly exserted from the perigone tube; filaments separate, 3-5 mm long, decurrent for about 2-3 mm from the middle to the base of the perigone tube, with the inner whorl basally adnate to the style for up to 1 mm, subulate; anthers subcentrifixed, 2 mm long and pale yellow before opening; pollen cream-coloured. Ovary 1.5-2.0 mm diam., green, with 1-6 ovules per locule. Style up to 5 mm long, only shortly exserted beyond the perigone tube, triquetrous, stout, with nectar collecting in the sinuses between the style and inner filaments; stigma trifid. Seeds 3-4 mm diam., more or less ovoid, obtusely hooked, covered with stomata. From: Snijman, DA. 1994. Systematics of Hessea, Strumaria and Carpolyza (Amaryllideae:Amaryllidaceae). Contr.

Bulbous geophyte, 5-15(-27) cm. Leaves 4-6, spreading, filiform. Flowers 1-4, small, erect, funnel-shaped, white to pink, scape wiry, spirally twisted below, persisting after fruiting.

Diagnostic description

The species is distinguished by the funnel-shaped flowers, a perigone tube to which the filaments are decurrent and inner stamens which are adnate to the somewhat stout style for approximately 1 mm. The seeds are comma-shaped in outline due to the presence of a short curved hook. Other species of Strumaria also have stamens which are adnate to the style, but never only the inner whorl. From: Snijman, DA. 1994. Systematics of Hessea, Strumaria and Carpolyza (Amaryllideae:Amaryllidaceae). Contr. Bolus Herb. 16: 2-158. [All rights reserved]

Habitat

The species occupy a range of habitats: flats, slopes or rock crevices; either in loam, sand or limestone; but always in areas that remain seasonally moist in winter. The associated vegetation varies from fynbos, renosterbos to marginal succulent veld of the Little Karoo. The populations are localised, either small when confined to rocky sites or forming extensive patches on open flats. From: Snijman, DA. 1994.

Distribution

This slender species is limited to the south-western Cape, southern Cape and margins of the Little Karoo. From: Snijman, DA. 1994. Systematics of Hessea, Strumaria and Carpolyza (Amaryllideae:Amaryllidaceae). Contr. Bolus Herb. 16: 2-158. [All rights reserved]
