Sepals without or with a very narrow hyaline margin; stems erect to spreading but not frondose, not or scarcely ancipitous (2-edged) when young

没有有一很狭窄透明的边缘的或的萼片；但不是具叶的茎直立到开展，不或几乎不ancipitous(2镶边)幼时 30

Sepals with broad hyaline margin; stems erect to arching with ± numerous lateral branches, often frondose, markedly ancipitous (2-edged) when young
