D. pilosa Koekemoer: section Laevicarpa Koekemoer (D. kolbei) and section Uniflos Koekemoer (D. tortilis) which are both monotypic, and section Disparago which has four species (D. ericoides. D. anomala. D. kraussii, D. laxifolia). The previous revision (Levyns 1936a) included seven species of which six are retained.
