2cm (about 19 mm at most measuring across to tips
grays), but not “etwas dickl, fleischig” and all have

poss of E. neglectus Turner altho their involucres
might seem well described as shaggy with
weak fursted (ie crumbled) hairs. Rays distinctly

de Naye. No gland hairs and no thread-like fls bet
rays & disks. This suggests E. uniflorus but these are
not glabrous on upperside and all are ± mucronate.
Hence we fall back on poss of E.glabratus as base S.V.II.
The plant has a much more glabrate look than
