 4-angled, with very short straight lieak : disk-akenes numerous, with pappus of 5 to 8 broad-

 generally sterile, the pale;e of their pappus not hirsute: stems paniculately branched, a foot or 

 two high, some taller: lower cauline leaves pinnatitid; upper and rameid entire, small. 



H. Kelloggii, Greene. Hirsute, sparsely so above, bearing short-pedicelled looselv panicu- 

 late heads : cauline leaves niostly pinnately-parted or toothed: involucre quarter-inch hif'h ; 

 the bracts hirsntely glandular on the back, broadly lanceolate : ra^'s fully 3 lines long : 

 bracts of the receptacle rather broad, well united into a cup : ra^'-akenes tuberculate-rugose 

 (a line or more long), bearing a rather strongly lateral and slender curved (almost sigmoid) 

 beak : sterile disk-akenes with pappus about equalling the tube of their corolla, composed of 

 lacerately truncate paleai, which are mostly connate to near their summits. — Bull. Torr. 

 Club, X. 41. — Central California near Antioch (Kellogg), and along the San Joaquin Valley,

H. "Wrightii, Gray. Hirsute below, 1 to 3 feet high, with widely-spreading branches, 

 wlien much branched decumbent; the slender or filiform branchlets terminated by pedicellate 

 heads : lower cauline leaves Iaciniate-pinnatifid ; those of the branchlets mostly minute and 

 very viscid-glandular, as is the involucre ; its bracts ovate-lanceolate ; those of the receptacle 

 partly united : ray-akenes obscurely tuberculate-rugose, M'itli sliort beak: sterile disk-akenes 

 with pappus of 8 or 9 oijlong firm ])alea;, their summit erose-laciniate. — Proc. Am. Acad.

 usually fasciculate-clustered sessile small heads : cauline leaves mostly pinnately jjarted or 

 laciniate ; uppermost on the brandies sul)ulate-linear and rather crowded about tlie heads 

 or clusters : bracts of the involucre narrowly lanceolate, either glabrous or glandular-liisjiidu- 

 lous ; of the receptacle lightly united or nearly free : ray-akenes either smoothisli or at length 

 transversely rugose, apiculate with a small very short beak ; disk-akenes chiefly sterile, witli
