Penso que seja esta a forma correcta em português. Aparecem traduções como "small", (article reveals the delicate beauty of a small species with very small flowers: Sobralia pumila Rolf, truly a jewel of nature. ) (A small species, averaging 58 cm long (43 to 70cm), with a long tail averaging 32 cm (24 to 36cm), and average weight around 4kg (2-6kg). ) "low growth" (The result is low-growing vegetation, dominated by natural grassy prairies and woody bush vegetation. )
