Taxonomy.

This subspecies is generally similar to ssp. selloana , and includes all the morphologically homogenous apomictic populations of the Yungas region. It can be separated from ssp. selloana by the inflorescences which extend far beyond the foliage, and the pink, 75-90 cm long, very lax, pyramidal and nodding panicles. In Ecuador it is sympatric with Cortaderia nitida , from which it can be separated by its larger size and its spectacular pink panicles. They can also easily be distinguished by the leaves: in subsp. jubata they are flat and folded V-shaped, while in Cortaderia nitida leaves are inrolled from both margins.
