 Underwood et F. S. Earle n. 1341 (KU, fragm. orig. spec). 



Only a small fragment of this species has been seen. 

 It is closely related to V. leptoclada Sch.-Bip., but differs 

 abundantly in the larger involucres with elongated, spreading, 

 sub -filiform scales. 



Teriionia calida Gleason.

Not seen. From the description it appears to be a good 

 species, chiefly distinguished from F. leptoclada by its con- 

 tracted inflorescence. 



Teriionia semitalis Gleason. 



Vernonia semitalis Gleason, 1913, p. 319. 



Hab. in Cuba: Oriente, ad viam inter Rio Yamaniguey 

 et Camp Toa, 22—26. 2. 10, Shaeer n. 4176. 



This species seems to be related to the preceding one, 

 differing above all in its nearly glabrous involucre. I did not 

 see any specimen of this.
