Names
GERBERA ambigua Sch. Bip. [family COMPOSITAE]
Lasiopus ambiguus Cass. [family ], Dict. 25, p. 299. DC.! l. c. 18.
Lasiopus coriaceus DC. [family ], ! l. c. 19.
Information
leaves short-petioled, subcoriaceous, elliptical or oblong, obtuse, scarcely tapering at base, entire or inversely-subsinuate, pilose, becoming glabrous above, albo-tomentose beneath, midribbed and penninerved; achenes hispidulous; pappus fulvous; inv. sc. longer than the disc, villous. Petiole 1–2 in. long; lamina 2 1/2–4 in. long, 1–2 in. wide, all but the very old leaves tomentose beneath. There are three specimens in Hb. Sd. from Ecklon marked “Las. coriaceus,” DC.: one of them is precisely identical with an authentically marked sp. from Drege (Hb. D.) of “L. ambiguus;” the other two are undistinguishable from “Las. viridifolius.” I am therefore compelled to reject “L. coriaceous” altogether.
Distribution
