64. E. camachense Hieron. Suffruticose, 6-10 dm. high; stems 
upright, branched above, subterete, when young densely clothed with 
capitate-glandular hairs, at length subglabrate; leaves opposite, 
broadly deltoid-ovate, long-acuminate, irregularly dentate-serrate 
except at the entire apex and rounded-truncate or -cordate (teeth 
sometimes as much as 2.5 mm. high and’ 4 mm. wide, mucronate, 
acute), membranaceous, bright yellowish-green, somewhat 5-7- 
nerved (the 2-3 basal pairs of nerves originating near together), the 
blades at most about 6 cm. long and 4 em. wide; heads in rather 
dense terminal corymbose cymes, about 55-65-flowered; pedicels 
sometimes as much as 3.5 mm. long; involucre campanulate, the 
scales about 20, subequal, linear-lanceolate, acutish, dorsally glandu- 
lar-viscid; corollas about 4 mm. long, in dried state yellowish-white, 
the proper tube (somewhat bulbous at base) about 1.75 mm. long, 
the throat narrowly campanulate, 1.5 mm. long; nearly mature 
achenes about 2 mm. long, dark, rough on the concolorous angles; 
pappus-bristles 20 or more, somewhat deciduous, whitish, connate

65. E. trichobasis Bak. Herbaceous, probably perennial, about 
6 dm. high, erect, simple below, branching toward the summit; stem 
terete, weak, pithy, covered with a short dense grayish pubescence; 
leaves opposite, ovate-rhombic or lanceolate, narrowed to an acute 
apex, cuneate to obtuse or sometimes rounded or even subtruncate 
at base, incisely crenate- to serrate-dentate, membranaceous, puberu- 
lent above, densely gray-tomentellous beneath, 3-9 cm. long, 14 
em. wide; petiole densely gray-pubescent, 1-2.5 em. long; corymbs 
terminal on stem and branches, rather dense, 2.5-5 cm. in diameter, 
few-headed; heads 60-80-flowered (ace. to Bak.); pedicels flexuous, 
densely gray-pubescent; involucre 4-5 mm. high, nearly as broad;
