Sepals 7.0-9.0 x 4.5-6.5 mm, broadly ovate or elliptic, apex acute or acute-acuminate, glabrous above, sparsely to densely pubescent below. Corolla 2.0-2.5 mm long, broadly and shortly cup-shaped, lobed for 2/3 of its length, apparently basal part dull purple-brown, apical part yellowish-green, glabrous above, puberulous below especially in the upper part; lobes 8.0-9.8 mm long, broadly ovate, concave below, tips recurved or revolute, obtuse, notched or emarginate, margins slightly revolute and imbricate below. Corona lobes 5-6 x 3-4 mm, erect, oblong, apex obtuse, sides reflexed, and forming a narrow median channel on the outer surface, a median keel on the inner surface, the keel about 0.6 mm high, a pair of linear teeth 1-2 mm long, one at each side at the base, spreading outwards from under the anther wings close to the corolla, corona `dark purple-brown'.
