Description

Cassinia furtiva is a shrub that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt with its branchlets covered with glandular hairs embedded in a sticky resin. The leaves are narrow linear, Шаблон:Cvt long and about Шаблон:Cvt wide with the edges rolled under. The upper surface of the leaves is glabrous and the lower surface of the leaves is densely covered with cottony white hairs. The flower heads are arranged in a dichasium of 100 to 150, each head with five florets surrounded by overlapping membranous involucral bracts in two or three whorls. The achenes are Шаблон:Cvt long with a bristly pappus of 18 to 21 bristles.[1]

Taxonomy and naming

Cassinia furtiva was first formally described in 2006 by Anthony Edward Orchard in Australian Systematic Botany from specimens collected Шаблон:Cvt north-west of Warialda in 1988.[2] The specific epithet (furtiva) means "hidden" or "elusive", referring to the lack of success in rediscovering this species after its discovery.[1]

Distribution and habitat

This species of Cassinia is only known from the type specimen that was growing in shrubby woodland in hilly country.[1]
