I have no specimens. It appears to be distinct from either as well 

 by its very slender leaves, as by the more numerous rows of its 

 involucral scales.

 albido-tomentoso arete intertexto omnino indutis, nervo prominente, 

 ad 1-5 cm. longis 0-5 cm. latis, lobis inferioribus subconformibus sed

Hab. : Natal : summit of the Drakensbergen, approx. alt. 1,500- 

 1,800 meters, Febr., Haygarth (Com. J. M. Wood, 9925!). 



A very distinct species with something of the habit of C. tomejitosa 

 Less., but taller and more robust, and differing much in its in- 

 florescence and leaves. The latter are very dark, or dry dark, 

 on the upper surface, and, though glabrous, are much wrinkled 

 and rough in the dried state. The ligules of the ray flowers 

 appear to be yellow.

 solitariis vel laxe corymbosis, pappi squa^nis 2-seriatis oblongis obtusis 

 subminutis ; achceniis glabris.
