The coelias are divided into 2 strongly marked groups with widely different kinds of infl. C. macrostachya is a type of the first section, with long racemes of numerous small, horizontal fls., which are much exceeded by the long spreading bracts, and the base of the column short. C. bella is typical of the second section, with the fls. few, larger, erect, in groups of about 3, longer than their bracts, and the base of the column produced to twice its own length, which gives the fls. a tubular appearance.—A half-dozen species in Cent, and S. Amer.
