- Determinatie (5956): Walter Till (2010-09-16) =Tillandsia cf. cacticola
- The leaves look like T. cacticola, the spikes are laxly flowered as in T. straminea. Either the latter character is not reliable to separate both taxa or these intermediates indicate that both species should be joined (at whatever infraspecific level). Without field observations I would not make any taxonomic conclusions
- Opmerking (5956): Derek Butcher (2010-09-16) - Could it be linked to Rauh17436 vaguely mentioned in S&D page 866 as cacticola x purpurea? (Verzonden: brom-l@nic.surfnet.nl)
- Opmerking (5956): Eric Gouda (2010-09-16) - Tillandsia straminea is highly variable and the only differerence compared with T.cacticola could be that it is caulescent and mostly denser spikes. For me T.cacticola would be better of as a variety of T.straminea, then at least you can name all intermediar forms T.straminea. (Verzonden: brom-l@nic.surfnet.nl)
- Opmerking (5956): Peter Tristram (2010-09-16) - KK never reveals his source. Eric, if you to Cochabamba below Cutervo in Nth Peru, trees contain both T straminea and cacticola. They are both common in the warmer valleys, but not caulescent forms. I might have a photo. (Verzonden: brom-l@nic.surfnet.nl)
- Determinatie (5956): Matthias Asmuss (2010-09-18) =Ti cacticola
- comparing with my specimen Ti cacticola (uploaded in 5979) this should be Ti cacticola; Eric, please "unload" the picture of the two Gu lingulata ... (Verzonden: brom-l@nic.surfnet.nl)
