Some further puzzling Gnaphaliums.
Specimen A was collected on 5.11.55 a little to the east of the main saddle of the Puketoi range on the Makuri-Pongaroa road.
Specimen B was collected also on 5.11.55 on the eastward side of a road-saddle on the Horoeka-Coonoor road over the Puketois. This place is approximately twelve miles north of the collection site for specimen A.
I think B (Bd 97226) is only a larger leafed form of A (97225).
These small Gnaphaliums with solitary terminal heads bloom about six weeks later than the more conspicuous G.Lyalli and G. subrigidum.
