Specimen notes
Operator:
Information written by HHA on 10/1/[19]34 reads "This plant is labelled by JBA "n. sp.". Not , I think, Gnaphalium at all, but I can't place it. I have been unable to determine this composite which is neither a Gnaphalium nor a Vittadinia. It appears they are of the Helenieae, and is almost certainly an introduced plant. Could be identified at Kew
