This species resembles S. ambigua, Cham., in the character of 

 its leaves and calyx-segments, but differs markedly in its 

 inflorescences and bracts, in which respects it approaches more 

 nearly to S. aurea, R.Br.

 species ex affinitate &. ambigaae, Cham., a qua cymis laxioribus,

8. ambigua and S. pallida. It is very similar to S. ambigua in 

 vegetative appearance. The cymes, however, are not collected into 

 dense capitula and the bracts are narrower and less conspicuous 

 than in S. ambigua. The calyx-segments have the wings broadest 

 at the middle like those of S. pallida, whereas in S. ambigua there 

 is a small thick apical wing.
