Natal; stony places near the summit of the Mont-aux-Sources, 
alt. 2800 meters, Jan. (1896), Justus Thode, 23! Cape Colon y; district 
Barkly East, Doodman’s-Krantz-Mt., 2800 meters, March, Galpin, 6707! 
(in herb. Kew, my own, &c.). 
Thode’s plant has longer undivided leaves, larger corymbs and 
smaller heads; those of Galpin show several bifid and trifid leaves, inter- 
mixed with undivided and mostly shorter leaves, smaller corymbs with 
fewer and larger heads; the measurements given above represent the 
extremes of size. The species does not greatly resemble any other known 
to me.

E. foliis linearibus integris glabris, viridibus; involucri squamis in- 
timis apice ovatis membranaceo-dilatatis. 
Tota glabra; rami lignosi adscendentes dense foliosi, 18 cm longi; 
folia sparsa conferta imbricata, adscendentia vel patentia, linearia acuta 
mucronulata, pleraque curva, viridia, 1—1,2 cm longa, 0,06—0,07 cm 
lata: capitula terminalia solitaria subsessilia, obconica vel transverse 
semi-ovata, basi angustata, radiis exemptis 0,5—0,6 cm longa, apice 
0,6 cm lata; involueri squamae multiseriatae, appressae, imbricatae, 
exterioribus brevissimis, intermediis, lanceolatis acuminatis  laceratis, 
apicem versus membranaceis, 0,6 cm longis, intimis apice in laminam 
ovatam membranaceam discolorem dilatatis, 0,7 em longis; flores radii

Transvaal Colony; district Lydenburg, Graskop near Pilgrim’s 
Rest, on the edge of the Drakensbergen, Jan., J. Burtt-Davy, 1474! 
(in herb. Kew, my own, &c.). 
This species is very distinct and unlike any other in its foliage. The 
membranous dilatation of the tips of the inner involucral scales is also 
larger than in any other.
