Morphology
Perennial herbs, up to 1 m tall; plants glabrous below, viscidly pubescent above. Leaves simple, opposite; petiole 0.5-4 cm, narrowly winged; lamina ca. 2.5-14 x 1.5-7.5 cm, elliptic-lanceolate to elliptic or rhombic-elliptic, or broadly ovate to cordate, rounded or attenuate at base, acute-acuminate at apex, margins serrate; secondary nerves 10-12 pairs. Capitula few, rarely many, small, in a lax or dense corymb or panicle; peduncle 0.8-3 cm, grey-white or ferruginous puberulent; involucre hemispheric, ca. 0.4-0.5 × 0.6-0.8 cm, to 10 mm in diam. at fruiting; phyllaries 2-seriate, green, subequal, narrowly elliptic, thin, submembranous, outer phyllaries mostly connate, sparsely white villous, apex obtuse; corollas ca. 2.5 cm, viscid-glandular, pubescent. Achenes blackish brown when mature, oblanceolate, ca. 4 × 1 mm, glandular, sometimes densely tuberculate, contracted at base, apex obtuse; pappus elements clavate, ca. 4.1 mm, basally connate into a ring, fulvous viscid-glandular.
