Cape : Griftberg, 1-2000 ft., on stony ground, local, ray fls. white,

I have matched this specimen with Schlechter 8831 from Ezelbank 

 and Schlechter 8575 from Zeekoe Vlei, both named by Schlechter M. 

 Ecklonis, Sond. An authentic specimen of the latter has not been seen, 

 but as the ray flowers are described as yellow, I am somewhat doubtful 

 of the determination.
