Very like A. monticola, but the branches are not elongate nor the “oly 2 glandular, 
the leaves are more sharply keeled, the calyx segments narrow, 14 line long and the 
petals oblong, narrowed into a filiform, pilose claw. The ster. fil. are also narrower, 
with lin. oblong limb. Leaves 3-4, sometimes 6-8 lines long, sub-incurved. Old 
peduncles pale, 4 lines long. Style at length twice as long as the calyx. 
21. A. Dregeana — ; virgate branches and twigs glabrous ; leaves 
erect, /inear, channelled above, convex beneath, not keeled, punctate, 
quite glabrous, the younger ciliate; flowers capitate ; peduncles half as 
long as the calyx, glabrous, 2-bracted ; calyx-lobes obtuse, ciliate; petals 
twice as long as the calyx, with shortish, glabrous claws ; ster. fil. linear- 
sub-spathulate, equalling the petals, the claw filiform, pilose.
