214. j Eclipta ciliata Raf. Caule erecto tereti levis, 
foliis alternis sessilibus remotis linearibus glabris 
ciliatis crassis, perianthus conicus. Raf.—Radiee 
anonyme Rob. p. 449. Stem two or three feet 
high. Flowers terminal, less than one inch in 
diameter, rays white 1 , disk yellow, perianthe 
with many rows of folioles. Seeds compressed 
notched, with a few small aristas. This plant 
blossoms in September ; it has the smell of Cicuta 
and a very acrid taste, therefore must be dele¬ 
terious. 
215 Artemisia dracunculus L. Rob. p. 440. 
216. -- amorpha Raf. Foliis linearibus, peri- 
anthis oblongis, paucifloris, ligulis flosculis in¬ 
termixes.—A. 2. Rob. p. 440. Similar to the 
foregoing, having the same smell and an acrid 
taste, perianthe oblong instead of globular, and 
containing four or five small mixed flowers, some 
of which are five-toothed floscules, and some 
ligular floscules ! This being so imperfectly de¬ 
scribed by Robin, might be the A. cana of Pursh, 
or the A. integrifolia of Wildenow, but it differs 
from either by the flowers which are not ovate, 
and the singular character of some floscules be¬ 
coming ligular, makes it very remarkable. 
217. Galardia amara Raf. Caule apice paniculato, 
ramis unifloris, foliis linearibus reflexis glabris, 
ligulis apice dilatatis tridentatis Raf.—Anthemis 
Rob. p. 440. This plant has not the habit of 
Anthemis , but rather of a Galardia ; as Robin de¬ 
scribes it imperfectly, it may, however, be either,
