REMARK
The plants are close to Benthamia africana , but with significant differences, such as the very elongated floral parts and an unusual longitudinal thin crest on the lip, a spur which is flattened and not scrotiform. The location is very far from the nearest known locality of Benthamia africana . Field observations and additional specimens are necessary to make a decision.
