Allied to 2. Liideritzianus, and like it presenting the 
peculiarity of tubular instead of radiate outermost florets. The 
longer Jeaves pubescent above instead of silky all over, the four- 
leaved involucre and quadrifid corollas of the outermost florets, 
together with the diandrous condition of the latter, give the 
plant abundant claims to specific rank.

Mau Forest ; F. J. Jackson. 
A remarkable form, stout and erect in growth, with larger 
heads than ordinary on unusually stout peduncles. This variety 
should, I think, be considered a distinct species, and this was the 
opinion of J. Gay as well as of Schultz Bipontinus. 
Tribe SENECIONIDES.
