inquilina. DC. Prod. vi. 302. Wight, 1c. 1. 1123. —.Bot. Mag. t. 064 (Caéalia). Genus Senecioni 
quam maxime affine; in E. sonchifolia tamen, specie typica Cassiniana, stylüs ei Gynure accedit, 
ramis tenuibus aeutiuseulis ; in E. prenantAoide, DC., et E. scabra, DC., rami paullo latiores sunt 
&pice penieillati, appendice vix longiore quam in speciebus paucis Senecionis.
