Two types of individuals were observed: the more common branched ones, less than 1 cm long with a prevalence of female flowers, and the scarcer usually solitary ones to 3 cm long, with a prevalence of male flowers. The description oí P. olae Kuijt is complemented with information concerning male plants and hosts.
