The flag at
pueblos-de-puertorico.com site (defunct) has a has a yellow star
with a tail pointing strait downward. The same site has the same
image, but with a white star.
The Lexjuris
site has the same image, white star with the tail pointing
slightly towards the hoist (a strange sight, when you see the
Coat of Arms alongside it with the tail pointing strait
downwards).

In a green field, in bridge, a village of the XIX century,
with six houses and one church, in silver and red: the church is
adorned with the Coat of Arms of the order of "del
Carmelo"; and in the upper right hand, a silver star. Gold
border with five calabash (higüera, Crescentia cujete L.)
leaves. To the top; a three tower gold crown. The town this
represented by the buildings and the star of the dawn. The shield
of the order del Carmelo refers to our Señora del Carmen, matron
of the population. The other symbols refer to the last name
'Figueroa" , the border recalls the founder, don José
Ramón Figueroa. The crown is a standard of the municipal shelds
and stands for the union and solidarity in the defense of its
traditions, liberties and comun good.
