Notes:
Low herb. Leaves green above. These Banks Peninsula plants were regarded as a green form of Gnaphalium audax (e.g. Webb 1988) but I can't distinguish them from Gnaphalium gymnocephalum. (Euchiton gymnocephalus, J.Holub, New names in phanerogamae 3. Folia geobotanica et phytotaxonomica 9:261(1974)).
