Subsp. ornithogaloides is distinguished from subsp. flava only by the corms, ovoid-ellipsoid and tapering at both ends, this typical of subg. weihea and the ancestral type in Geissorhiza ornithogaloides. The bell-shaped corm of subsp. flava is specialised and derived. In all other features, the two subspecies are essentially identical, although there are several populations of subsp. ornithogaloides on the edges of the range of this subspecies that have smaller flowers than any found in subsp. flava.
