Discussion
Ausser der ganz verschiedenen Farbe und der Groesse mag diese Art von T. laevicepsHNS Sm. durch das Stielchen verschieden sein, da Herr Smith angibt: " the nodes subglobose, the basal one being the smallest ", waehrend T. punctulataHNS das umgekehrte Verhaeltniss zeigt, denn es ¡st wohl anzunehmen, das Herr Smith den ersten Knoten den Basalknoten nennt.
