This species is very similar to P. globosa, Less., but it has 
much longer leaves with very Jong lateral segments and larger 
capitula; from P. lanata, Hutchinson, the description of which 
will also appear in my account of the Compositae of the Percy 
Sladen Expeditions in the Annals of the South African Museum, 
it may be distinguished by the much narrower herbaceous 
inner bracts and less hairy branchlets.

Except for the conspicuously membranous inner involucral 
bracts and larger capitula, this new species might be considered 
a very hairy form of P. globosa, Less.
