 to a narrow summit, fully as long as the white or whitish and softer pappus: stems scapiform, 

 bearing one or two small leaves toward the base and subulate bracts subtending peduncles 

 or simple branches of the panicle: leaves of radical tuft obovate to spatulate, obtuse, entire or 

 minutely denticulate, contracted into short wing-margined petioles. — § Chinnoruclum, ^chnV.z

H. Pringlei, Gray. Strictly scapose, completely destitute of setose hairs and of glands : 

 leaves wholly rosnlate, very villous-lauate both sides, obovate (2 or 3 inches long) : scape very 

 slender, a foot or more high, minutely soft-pubescent, as also the involucre, loosely paniculate
