A stout, perfectly glabrous perennial : stem about 4 dm. high, 

 rather leafy, striate and somewhat angled : basal leaves 6-10 cm. 

 long, slender-petioled, obovate or broadly oval, sinuately crenate- 

 dentate, thin : lower stem leaves oblanceolate, petioled, deeply 

 lobed or divided with rounded lobes : upper stem leaves broadly 

 ovate in outline, sessile, pinnately divided into broadly oblong or 

 cuneate divisions which are more or less deeply sinuate-dentate : 

 cyme compound ; its branches corymbiform : heads about 8 mm. 

 high ; bracts broadly lanceolate, acute, membranous margined and 

 slightly shorter than the disk: rays 6-7 mm. long, and 3 mm. 

 wide, 5 -nerved : achenes striate, glabrous. 



Probably nearest related to the preceding, but easily distin- 

 guished by the form of the leaves and the broad rays. It grows 

 at an altitude of about 1500 m. [Plate 6, f. 8.]
