Trevis. and differs by subdimorphic leaves (vs. monomorphic), sterile leaves 2.5-3.5 mm wide (vs. 1.5-2.5 mm wide), fertile leaves 1.5-3.0 mm wide [vs. 1.0-1.5 (-2.0) mm wide] and distribution (1800-2900 m vs. 600-2300 m). H. chiricana (Maxon) Holub was collected in Volcán Turrialba and H. lancifolia (Maxon) Holub in Jicotea of Turrialba and Cerro Pittier of Coto Brus, Costa Rica.
