FLORA OF AFRICA: COMPOSITE. 315 
AMPHIDOXA FILAGINEA, Fical. § Hiern, in Trans. Linn. Koc., 
ser. II. Bot. ii. (1881) 21 (ex ic. et descript.). 
To this species must be referred specimens collected by 
Dr. R. F. Rand in Rhodesia, at Salisbury (No. 152) and Bula- 
wayo (No. 351): these I named (Journ. Bot. xxxvii. (1900) 
160) Helichrysum declinatum, Less., in error. The two plants 
are treacherously alike, and only careful dissection can reveal 
the difference between them. 
In my former contribution (Journ. Linn. Soc., Bot. xxxv. 
(1902) 332) I proposed the name Helichrysum achyroclinoides 
for a Mt. Milanji plant collected by Mr. Alexander Whyte. 
Mr. Baker having already used this name for a Madagascar 
species, the plant in question may be known as H. soRDIDUM. 
HELICHRYSUM ARGYROSPILERUM, DC. Prodr. vi. 174.
