408 CoMPOSIT# (Harv.) [Zuryops. 
Has. About Table Mt., Eck. Betw.Gekau and Bashe, and on the Witberg, Drege. 
Unknown to me. Specimens from Ecklon (Hb. Sd.) under this name, in very bad 
order, to me seem referable to the narrow-leaved forms of S. Albanensis ; and a frag- 
ment from Drege (also Herb. Sd.) to S. umbellatus. The widely sundered habitats 
assigned to the species suggest a doubt of the specific indentity of the specimens on 
which it was founded. 
S. virgatus (Linn. Amoen. 6, Afr. 83) ; “shrubby ; leaves lyrate, to- 
mentose beneath; pedunc. 1-headed; inv. sc. subulate. DC. 1. ¢. 434. 
S. barbareeefolius (Turcz. Bull. Mose. xxiv. 2, p. 90); “ herbaceous, 
glabrous; stem angular, furrowed, leafy at base, simple, from the mid- 
dle branched, nude; branches long, corymbose, 1-3-headed ; lower leaves 
petioled, lyrate-pinnatifid, the end lobe very large, cordate or deltoid, 
the lateral adnate-decurrent, trapeziform, denticulate ; upper leaves half- 
clasping, coarsely toothed ; uppermost minute ; pedicels 2 or more times 
longer than the head, scaly; heads many-fl. [purple]; inv. calycled, of 
8 glabrous scales. Turcz. Walp. Ann. vol. 5, p. 338. 
Has. Cape, Zeyher, 2966. 
Brachyrhynchos trachycarpus (DC. 1. c. 438, excl. syn. Th.); “stem _ 
herbaceous, erect, sparingly branched, glabrous or cobwebby ; lower 
leaves petioled, lyrato-pinnatifid, on both sides glabrous, the lobes 
toothed, the lower ovate, small, the terminal ample, incised, toothed ; 
uppermost leaves few, scale-like, acuminate, depressed, like the invol. 
scales ; heads solitary, discoid; achenes muricate, scabrid, tapering.” 
DC. Cineraria incisa, Houtt. fide DC. 
Has. Cape (in Herb. Deless., fide DC). 
I have not seen this, but by the above description it can hardly be different from 
S, tuberosus. Thunberg’s Doria incisa, here quoted by DC., is Senecio erosus. 
Brachyrhynchos eupatorioides (DC.); “herbaceous, erect, quite gla- 
brous; lowest leaves on long petioles, oblong, tapering to each end; 
upper semi-amplexicaul, lanceolate, dilated at base, acuminate, all 
coarsely and irregularly toothed; corymb compound, many-headed ; 
heads discoid ; inv. subcalyculate, with few acuminate scales, the inner 
scales not sphacelate at tip, nearly equalling the flowers.” DC. l.c. 439. 
(excl. syn. Thunb.! & Less.) 
Has. Cape, Zey. 272, fide DC. 
“ Br. eupatorioides,” Less,! is a synonym of Senecio othonneflorus, DC. 
CXVIII. EURYOPS, Cass. 
Heads many-fl., radiate; the ray-fl. ligulate, female ; disc-fl. tubular, 
5-toothed, perfect. Recept. convex or conical, mostly honeycombed. 
Inv, scales uniseriate, their margins more or less concrete, valvate in 
estivation. Style-branches truncate, pencilled at the summit only. 
Achenes roundish or subcompressed, wingless, beakless. Pappus pluri- 
seriate, caducous, of rough, brittle, flexuous bristles, the outer hairs 
often deflexed or decurrent. DC. Prodr. 6, p. 443. 
_ Small shrubs or shrubby plants, almost all S. African; one from Arabia. Leaves 
alternate, crowded, coriaceous or fleshy, entire or 3-5-fid, or pinnati-partite- Pe
