British East Africa, Gopo lal Maru and Ndoro, Leikipia; 
Dr. J. W. Gregory. 
Eruanaera, Sch. Bip. 
(Bothriocline, Oliver ; Stephanolepis, 8. Moore.) 
E. sprssa, sp. nov. ; caule valido eximie striato arcte tomentoso 
deinde pubescente, foliis magnis stricte oppositis petiolatis 
ellipticis acutis basi cuneatis crenato- vel dentato-serratis supra 
pubescentibus mox puberulis subtus tomentellis, capitulis pro 
genere minimis pauciflosculosis ad apicem pedunculorum brevium 
axillarium vel terminalium arcte tomentosorum densissime 
aggregatis, involucri subcylindrici phyllis 3—-4-seriatis exterioribus 
oblongo-ovatis obtusis erectis interioribus ovatis acuminatis apice 
patentibus intimis hec squantibus sed quam ea paullo angusti- 
oribus omnibus anguste scarioso-marginatis et (intimis exemptis) 
sursum atratis ibique hispidulis, pappi setis paucis debilibus 
scabriusculis achenia immatura minima compressa paullo exce- 
dentibus vel equantibus. 
Hab. Tropical Africa; G. F. Scott Elliot, without locality or 
number, 
Caulis 0°35 em. diam., angulatus. Foliorum lamina 80-10°0 
cm. x 30-50 cm., subtus eminenter nervosa et microscopice 
glandulosa; petioli ultra 1:0 em. long., arcte tomentosi. Capi- 
tulorum glomeruli fere usque ad 2:0 cm. diam. Capitula modo 
0°25 cm. diam. Involucri phylla extima 0°25 cm., reliqua 0°3 cm. 
long. Achenia immatura 0°05 em. long. 
As far as the foliage is concerned this is much like EB. Schimper, 
var. tomentosa, but the inflorescence and capitula are quite 
different from those of any other known species.
