Ecuador: Quito, without number or date of collection, Jameson 



(Gray Herb.). 



The specimen here cited agrees in all essential details with the 

 very careful description of the above species by Professor Hier- 

 onymus, and the writer has no hesitation in referring it to that 



species. 



Senecio pulcheUus DC. Prodr. 6:421. 1837; Wedd. Chlor. And. 



1:100. 1855-1857. 



Cacalia pulchella HBK. Nov. Gen. & Sp. 4:160. 1820. 

 Microckaete pulchella Benth. PI. Hartw. 210. 1845. 



M. trichopus Benth. PI. Hartw. 210. 1815. 



Colombia: vicinity of Bogota, alt. 2895 m., Hartweg 1162 

 (N. Y. Bot. Gard. Herb.) ; in woods between Huambia and 

 Pitaya, Province of Popaya, Hartweg 1163 (N. Y. Bot. Gard.

 partment of Cundinamarca, October 12, 1917, Pennell 2377 (N. 



Y. Bot. Gard. Herb., Mo. Bot. Gard. Herb., and Gray Herb.). 

 The leaves on Dr. Peniiell's specimen here cited are somewhat 

 larger than described by Kunth for Cacalia pulchella on which 

 the above species was founded, but in all other regards there 

 is complete accord with that species.
