 0.1 cm lat. Pedunculi 2,5 — 4,0 cm long. Capitula circa 0,8 cm diam.

This has much the appearance of E. subcarnosus var. indivisus DG., 

 which, besides possessing radiate heads, has terete leaves, only 5 or 6 

 involucral leaves and judging from Drège's type spécimen a much longer 

 pappus. The discoid heads are peculiar; but I can find no ray-florets.
