Herbs, undershrubs, and shrubs. About 450 species, very widely dispersed in 
temperate regions, including the mountains within the tropics. The greatest concen-

number of undescribed species among the unnamed specimens in Kew herbarium; but 
the genus is too large for us to undertake a revision of it. |
