Description:
Type: Mexico: Ehrenberg s.n. The holotype at B was destroyed and no other material is known. The overall description, but particularly the emphasis on glandular trichomes, indicates C. longifolia. However, the leaf size indicated in the description seems rather small for this species. Because the lack of type material makes identification uncertain, lectotypification has been deferred.
