Hab. Chimanimani Mountains at 7000 ft. ; fl. Sept. ; n. 1879. 
Folia radicalia circa 10 em. long., 5 mm. lat. ; horum petiolus 6 em. 
long. ; folia caulina solemniter 7-15 em. long. 3-7 mm. lat., juniora vero 
imminuta in corymbi bracteas transeunt, auriculæ dum adsint margine 
denticulatæ. Corymbi modice 10 em. long., 5-7 em. diam. Capitula pansa 
7x13 mm. Involucri phylla 7 mm. long. calyculi 4-5 mm. Ligulæ 
angustissime ovato-oblongæ, tridenticulatæ, 7-nerves, 6'5 mm. long. Disci 
corolle 5 mm., styli rami 1:2 mm., achenia L:2 mm., pappi sete usque ad 
5 mm. long. 
Very close to S. albanensis, DC., from which it сап be distinguished chiefly 
by the leaves which are sometimes auricled at the base, the more closely 
arranged smaller heads and the silky-puberulous (not glabrous) achenes.
