Discussion:
3. Tepuia intermedia Steyermark, Acta Bot. Venez. 2: 303-305, fig 22. 1967. The Foldats' collection differs slightly from the type in its glabrous style and the more prominent leaf venation on the lower leaf surface. These are minor variations, however, and are without taxonomic significance.
