最近交易版不少卖家都把desmetii直接标成了d毛(一般意义上的d毛都是指depressum,这个品种一般认为比较难发芽,我今年也是第一次播,10粒原包下来发了3颗,1颗太小的没几天就化掉了。d毛下面有两个亚种:ssp. depressum寿命较短,开花后即枯萎,但可自花授粉。一般多数玩家手上的d毛都是ssp. perdurans这个亚种,寿命更长,但不可自花授粉),多少有误导的嫌疑。那么到底desmetii是什么东东呢。

这是TS大神网站的图片,相关说明我也贴下:
Continuing with the theme of disjunct populations, the next cono to be discussed is a form of C. stephanii ssp. helmutii from the base of the Koeriesberg (Khurisberg), about 25km north-east of Springbok. This was first found by Anthony Mitchell in the 1980s but he did not see the flowers or bring it into cultivation, so he was not aware which species it was. The population was rediscovered by Philip Desmet around 2005 and I received a few seeds under his number PD 3638 from which the plants shown in the photo were grown. The nearest hitherto-known populations of C. stephanii ssp. helmutii are at Eenriet (15km north-east of Steinkopf) and hence about 40km distant. This constitutes a significant range extension for the species. The plants tend to be rather slow-growing compared to other stephanii forms and my largest examples only have about 15 heads after 7 years. Looking at the photo, one is immediately struck by the purple-brown colour of the bodies. Most stephanii ecotypes are green, perhaps with some purple colouration around the sides, so this makes it rather distinctive. Such colouration can be seen in two other section Barbata taxa: C. pubicalyx and most particularly C. depressum ssp. perdurans; both of which can be found in an arc to the south and east of Koeriesberg. In fact, Steve Hammer has told me that there is a population of perdurans that is just a couple of kilometres from the berg. PD 3638 therefore seems to be an ecotype from the area where helmutii meets perdurans and it is tempting to suggest that it is intermediate between the two species. The flower colour of Eenriet stephanii and perdurans is the same copper-orange so no clues from that feature. The bodies of PD 3638 tend to be wider than tall, but do not have the flatness of perdurans. Most significantly, the hairs (trichomes) on stephanii stand out from the body but they tend to lie over the body in perdurans; PD 3638 has them standing out. I am therefore happy to include this local form within C. stephanii ssp. helmutii but there might be some introgression from perdurans with regards to the body colour。
原文太长,我挑几句重要的翻下:产地主要是Koeriesberg。生长速度比s毛慢,球体直径大于高度,比s毛更加矮胖,但不具备d毛的扁平顶部。体表的毛和s毛一样,是立起来的,而不像d毛一样是躺平的。TS大神倾向于将其归到s毛下面。
