3.1 mm in diameter, greenish yellow to reddish purple to red, with the base
woody and cork-covered. Stipules narrowly ovate-triangular, acute or rarely
slightly attenuate, (1.5-)2.2-8.4(-11.6)mm long, 0.1-1.3 mm wide; petioles 0.4-
2.7(-3.7) cm long, with 2 (very rarely 1), opposite to alternate, stipitate or sessile,
cupulate, discoid or capitate nectaries (very rarely urceolate), 0.4-1.5 mm wide,
0.2-1.6 mm high, commonly borne in the distal three quarters of the petiole (0.27-
0.93 of the distance from the base toward the apex of the petiole). Laminas (1.4-
)3.0-14.2(-19.0) cm long, (0.8-)1.6-10.0(-17.1) cm wide, not peltate or sometimes
slightly peltate (the distance from leaf base to point of petiole insertion 2.3-2.5
mm), commonly membranous, 3-lobed, rarely unlobed, ovate, commonly with
base cordate or cuneate to acute, lateral lobes ovate to oblong (very rarely
obovate), acute (rarely obtuse or rounded), (0.9-)1.4-7.5(-12.0) cm long, 0.3-3.0(-
4.8) cm wide, central lobe ovate to elliptic, sometimes obovate, central vein (1.4-
)3.0-9.0(-14.2) cm long, angle between the lateral lobes (21-)40-140°, ratio of
lateral lobe to central vein length (0.30-)0.38-0.87, margins entire, rarely crenate,
hyaline, primary veins 1-3 (when more than one, veins diverge and branch at
base or diverge and branch above base), laminar nectaries absent or sometimes
with 1-10 submarginal nectaries associated with the minor veins of the abaxial
surface, rarely associated with a crenation of the leaf margin, rarely with 2-4
nectaries proximal to the lateral leaf veins, 0.3-1.0 mm in diameter, circular to
widely elliptic, sessile; tendril 0.2-1.1 mm wide, present at flowering node except
in inflorescence. Flowers borne in leaf axils or sometimes in indeterminate
axillary or terminal inflorescences; inflorescences 2.0-4.0 cm long, associated
