Morphological Features of  Species

​

​Cells measured 5.5–6.0 μm in length and 2.5–3.8 μm in width, with a length-to-width ratio ranging from 1.45 to 2.40. The trichomes consisted of cylindrical cells dividing transversely and intercellularly. Apical cells were generally rounded or elongated-pointed after trichome breakage, and the calyptra was absent.
