S. diplotricha has a number of clones in general distribution, with numerical identification according to the Punter scheme. It can be difficult to assign a correct numerical designation to a plant, especially on the basis of a single photograph. Dr. Jeff Smith believes that the plant shown above is Punter #6, although he acknowledges that it could be another clone. An image of a different specimen of S. diplotricha, Punter #0, may be seen by clicking here.
