John and Den,

When somebody works on the genus, I am sure it will be clarified.  Until one
is familiar w/ all the taxa (well at least most), it is hard to say where it
will fall.  Do I recall Alan Meerow saying that it was affiliated w/ E.
coccinea?

The problem with working on Amryllids is that you need to grow em to able to
study em!  I can not image how one covers a group that one has no experience
with...

For now, it will remian Eustephia jujuyensis in my collection. At least I
know where it comes from!  This is not a bad thing, as I myself lable many
plants Genus & locality (eg Griffinia itubera), while it may not be
taxonomically correct it is logical.

Happy New Year!
