430. A. cornonopiroLia, var. gracilis, foliis minus divisis, 
capitulis minoribus. A. glandulosa, Scheele, l.c. p. 157. In 
the gravel of the dry bed of the Cibolo. September. 
(640.) Franserta tenuironia, Gray & Harv. m PI. 
Fendl. p. 80; var. TRIPINNATIFIDA: segmentis foliorum cre- 
bris brevioribus. — Mountain prairies of the Liano, along the 
margin of thickets. November. — This pretty clearly belongs 
to the same species as the plant which Fendler collected at 
Santa Fe; but all the lower leaves are tripinnately parted, 
their segments shorter and broader; and only the upper 
bipinnately parted leaves have the terminal lobes prolonged. 
The fertile involucre, in the specimens examined, is only one- 
celled and one-flowered ; and so it sometimes is in Fendler’s 
specimen. It is, like that, minutely scabrous-pubescent, and 
the spines, which are more developed and more numerous 
than in Fendler’s plant, but much shorter than in EF. Hooke- 
riana, all have uncinate points.

22. p. 167. Upper Guadaloupe and Cibolo Rivers, on rocky

tion here it blossoms through the summer. The minute 
pappus is apt to escape notice, except in the living plant.
