Biennial. Stem erect, simple, except at the very apex, woolly 
with jointed hairs. Lowest leaves strapshaped, attenuated at the 
base, sub-petiolate ; upper leaves sessile, slightly amplexicaul, lan- 
ceolate ; all remotely dentate or sinuate-dentate, or more rarely 
entire, often undulated, sparingly woolly with glandular jointed 
hairs. Corymbs united into a compact rather irregular compound 
corymb. Antbodes rather few, erect. Pericline hemispherical- 
bellshaped ; phyllaries all equal, sparingly woolly with glandular 
jointed hairs. Ray-florets very numerous. Achenes glabrous. 
Pappus at lengtb much longer than the florets. 
Pen ditches. Very rare, and now nearly extinct. It occurred 
in the counties of Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridge, Hunts, and Lin- 
coln. The only place wbere it has been observed for many years 
appears to be in West Pen, Ely. 
England. Biennial. Summer. 
Stem 1 to 3 feet high, very thick. Leaves crowded quite up to 
the antbodes, which are about 1 inch across. Pericline yellowish. 
Florets lemon-yellow. Pappus at first as long as the florets, but 
increasing in length afterwards until it much exceeds them. Plant 
pale yellowish-green, sparingly clothed with jointed glandular but 
not gland-tipped hairs. 
Of this I have not seen British specimens.
