matic; heads peduncled, 7 mm. broad, by 4 mm. long, the black- 
ish scales oblong, obtuse, thick, about equalling the yellowish 
flowers; akene 3 mm. long, 2 mm. broad including the wing, 
which is yellowish and fimbriate; the akene proper 1 mm. broad,

961. Listed as “Senecio,” is ASTER Baxcıı = Tripolium con- 
spicuum Lindl. DC. Prod. 6: 254, but there is an Aster con- 
spicuus Lindl. l. c. 250. In my opinion Aster Bangi is dis- 
tinct from AsrER ASTEROIDES (Colla) (Baccharis asteroides Colla, 
Mem. Act. Torin. 38: 14. pl. 25. f. 7). 
78. Listed as “ Mutisia viciaefolia Cav.?" is M. Candolleana 
Gard. & Field, Sert. Pl. ai 45, 46 = Mandon's 7, Pearce's 662, 
Rusby's 155, and also collected by Bridges. The cut pub- 
lished in Druggists’ Bulletin, 1888, is of this species.
