Figure 1, above. Jaltomata callacallense. Hermaphroditic-phase flower at left, and ripe fruit on right. This population (from Amazonas, Peru) unlike the population at the type locality, has a 10-lobed corolla and green corolla spots difficult to see but evident in this photo.

Figure 2, above. Jaltomata callacallense. Ripe fruits and flower showing two dehisced anthers and three undehisced anthers. This population (from Amazonas, Peru) unlike the population at the type locality, has a 10-lobed corolla and green corolla spots evident in this photo. Units are mm. Photo by Thomas Mione. T.
