Remarks
Robinson mentioned: 'E. polycephalum Sch.-Bip. ex Bak. in Mart. Fl. Bras. vi. pt. 2, 338, t. 88 (1876). Name published in synonymy but here raised to full specific rank being associated with Baker's adequate diagnosis of E. bracteatum Gardn. Under the specific name E. polycephalum Sch.-Bip. mav be placed the synonym E. bracteatum Gardn. in Hook. Lond. Jour. Bot. v. 472 (1846).' In 1930, Robinson separated 'E. polycephalum Sch.-Bip. Ex B.L.Rob.” from E. bracteatum Gardner; for the latter, he gave E. pernambucense as a new name
