The following is F. albivenis, according to GRIN:
 +
Fittonia argyroneura, E. Coem. Fig. 1508. Dwarf: lvs. dark, shining green. F.S. 16:1664. Gn. 36, p. 527; 2, p. 319. G. 11:7.— The velvetiness of the upper surface of verschaffeltii is due to large projecting epidermal cells with an apical nucleus. Instead of these characteristic cells, F. argyroneura has small cells and conical hairs, which are partitioned off and have tubercles at the base.
