This Genus, having a rigid fragile pap- 
pus, belongs to the Z;eraciee of Less. ; but 
orms a distinct section from any in his sy- 
nopsis, and which may be thus character- 
ized :—

h groupe is “ pappus

nus “ pappus mollis.” To us the pappus 
appears to be certainly neither rigid nor 
Ee although it is more so than in the 
Lactucee, from which, moreover, it dif- 
De in the brown, not white, colour. In 
Dr. Gillies’ specimens, the radical and 
lower stem-leaves are runcinate.

1 This tribe is easily distinguished from the other 
Labiatiflore, by the branches of the style being trun- 
— and penicellate at the apex, like those of Sene- 
: “Tana we have admitted Lessing’s two sub- 
Nassauviacee, we cannot but think them 
anargyrum, we € here adopt that name for it.
