ennial root, about 0.6 m. high,” slender, whitish, strongly strigil- 
lose. Leaves few, opposite, obovate, shortly pointed, cuneate at 
base, entire, densely but not harshly glandular-tuberculate- 
strigillose both sides, somewhat blackish-green (at least when 
dried), 1.9-4 cm. long, 1-2.9 em. wide; petioles 3-4 mm. long,

about 2 em. wide, about three at ends of branches on axillary and 
terminal peduncles 3-5 cm. long; disk 9-13 mm. high, 14-16 mm. 
thick. Involucre 5-seriate, 8-8.5 mm. high, graduated, the phyl-
