These characters are similar to those found in two other South American species:  Bulbostylis fasciculata Uittien (1926: 338) and  Bulbostylis vestita (Kunth) C.B. Clarke (1900: 87) .  Bulbostylis fasciculata differs in having 3–5 spikelets with the central one sessile and the others at the ends of elongate axes versus inflorescence with 3–9 fascicles on developed branch, each fascicle with 2–10 spikelets, located generally in the same length, sometimes any more developed than others.  Bulbostylis vestita differs from  B. amazonica in having hispid leaves and scapes.</p><p>Attempting to identify specimens of  Bulbostylis amazonica using the key to species in the Flora of the Venezuelan Guyana (Kral 1998) results in an identification as  Bulbostylis junciformis (Kunth) C.B. Clarke ex Moore (1895: 512) . The latter differs from  B. amazonica in having longer achenes (0.7–0.8 mm) and a recurved mucro on the glumes.</p><p>In his treatment of  Oncostylis junciformis (Kunth) Nees (1842: 86) described several varieties and forms. None of the infraspecific variation described by him matches the morphology of  Bulbostylis amazonica, nor does the distribution of any of those taxa match that of the new species. Nevertheless,  B. amazonica is similar to  B. junciformis in general habit and inflorescence structure. The differences between these two species are presented in Table 1.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/6C3FD43E583658517795D28A2AB8F78A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
