" His contribution to the investigation of the origin and development 

 of the family is by far the most important that has appeared for 

 many years. 



Conclusions are drawn to the effect that the Senecioneae are the most 

 primitive type of the family and that from them directly or indirectly, and 

 ultimately from Senecio itself, as the basal genus from which the Senecionea- 

 arose there sprang all the other tribes and genera of the family. This is very 

 strikingly confirmed by a study of the geographical distribution."
