SUMMARY
Plants 10–45 cm high, with fusiform bulbs; bulbs covered in dry, brown, stiff, sometimes spiky fibres, these up to 4 cm long. Plants without rhizomes. Leaves usually many, present at flowering time, mostly as long as or longer than plant height, uniform. Inflorescences rather dense, with 10–25(–30) flowers. Flowers (2.5–)3–4.5 mm long. Pedicels elongated at fruit maturity, up to 2–7 mm long, rarely longer, spreading at angles of 45–90° from the inflorescence axis, slightly curved inwards towards the apex. Infructescences 8–16 cm long. Fruits narrowly ovoid, 5–10 mm long, rarely longer, 1–2 mm wide, sometimes turning dark or black at fruit maturity. Mericarps linear, connate at the carpophore; tips only slightly curved outwards.
