109 Vaccinium dentatum East Hau'ola Trail Dentatum and Calycinum hybrids common in this area in sympatric environment. Unhybridized calycinum seems more common, difficult to find unhybridized dentatum. Preserved_Specimen Smaller individuals (< 30cm tall), poking out of fern layer where they can. Where fern layer becomes tall, dentatum does not appear unhjybridized as much because I think it is very difficult for this smaller plant to thrive here. In this individual: leaves smaller, ovate, coriaceous, some more lanceolate than others and pointed at tips, folded along crease of upper mid-vein to cup upward. Some of the serrations are quite prominent, especially closer to the bases of the leaves. Overall, though, most serrations are minute, singular, yellow, evenly spaced along margins. Flowers the typical deep red with greening corolla tips of dentatum. Calyz lobes also red, less blunt tipped than calycinum. Soft pinking in new growth in calycinum-typical way.

198 Vaccinium dentatum Kamakou Preserve, Nature Conservancy: Pepe o Pe Bog Preserved_Specimen Mostly dentatum-typical characters: very tough leaves, shiny upper sides, but leaves very lanceolate and upward-cupping. Shiny, tough, very lanceolate leaves here seem to be common in this area on Molokai. Sometimes these lanceolate leaves have longer, red teeth at margins (where I've designated the var. argutidens), but these are mostly minutely serrated and yellow except for one or two leaves which have the longer serrations, hence the two names. Leaves involute: thre is a slight upward curvature at the leaf margins, which hide the serrations. Many of these are not fruiting or flowering, which I find odd because all the other Vaccinium is generally going off here right now. But this individual is flowering. Green calyx lobes on red flowers here a surprise-thought the calyx lobes would be red. Becker, A.L. 105 Molokai BISH 2019-06-17
