This Castanopsu is very like C.jarcunca A. DC; but differs 

 from it in having subgiabrons imts and more strong spines on 

 the involucres. 



I am informed by Mr. S. A. Skan that this new plant is very near 

 to C. Ilijstrix A. DC, in which the leaves, though usually toothed, 

 are sometimes quite intire, and that there is no specimen at kew 

 of C. Hystfix with the spines of the involucre so stout and that 

 is apparently the only difference.
