Columna erecta, 2 mm longa. Fructus non observatus. Small, erect herb, 1—3(—7) cm tall. Tuber globose, 4—6 mm in diameter, white or light brown, finely villose. Rhizomes and subterranean portion of the stem white, scattered villose. Above ground portion of the stem light green, glabrous, enclosed at the base by a single, tubular sheath. Sheath 8—12 mm long, 1-nerved, slightly flared distally, ultimately free for 1—2 mm, free portion acuminate, apex cirriform. Stem semiterete, 1—7(—10) cm long. Leaf ovate or elliptical-ovate, 1.5—3(—6) by 1—1.5(—2) cm, light green above, paler below, apex narrowly acuminate, base shortly attenuate and decurrent into 2 ribs of the stem, midrib impressed above, prominently raised below, nerves 2 on either side of the midrib, convergate, suprabasel nerves 4 to 6 on either side of the midrib, laxly scalariform reticulate, marginal veins absent. Pedicel terete, 2—4 mm long, glabrous, subtended by a single bract. Bract linear, channelled, (5—)10—17 by 2—3 mm, pale green, narrowly acute, 1-nerved, glabrous. Ovary ascending and slightly inflexed, cylindrical, 6—10 by 2—3 mm, greenish-white, twisted, 6-grooved, glabrous. Median sepal erect, spathulate, 20—30 mm long overall, 7—9-nerved, white with 5—7 narrow maroon bands running along the mid and lateral nerves, claw narrowly attenuate, channelled, 10—15 mm long, blade ovate, 10—15 mm by 7—14 mm, margin slightly or not inflexed, entire, apex obtuse.
