leaves petioled, membranous, ovate-oblong, denticulate, acute, either rounded or cuneate-attenuate at base, at first setose, afterwards glabrous above, persistently tomentose, strongly midribbed and penni-nerved beneath; inv. sc. silky, sub-biseriate; achenes hispid; pappus violet-purple. Solitary specimens of our two varieties look very distinct, but I possess an intermediate form from Mr. Sanderson, which quite connects them. The strongly marked rib and nerves on the lower side characterize both forms equally.
