Not quite sure about this one. Could be pauciflora or peniculata. May have to be a sp. unless anyone else has thoughts

The deep slit in the post anther lobe makes me think brevifolia, but I am not sure if the two species you mentioned share that characteristic.

Hmm. Would be good to have a photo of the leaf too. Maybe we should leave this one as a sp.
