The thickened part of the appendix is still smooth so that excludes var. mirabile, this is normal speciosum. The most important difference between both varieties is the appendix surface which is verrucose (rough, like sandpaper) in var. mirabile and smooth in var. speciosum. The appendix can be abruptly thickened in var. speciosum but not always. In var. mirabile it is always thickened.
