    Stems 1–5+, usually erect or ascending, sometimes procumbent, branched or simple, glabrous or sparsely hairy (hairs basifixed).
    petiolate or sessile;
    blades oblong, 1–3-pinnately lobed, ultimate margins crenate or serrate, faces glabrous or sparsely hairy.
    Heads radiate [discoid or disciform], borne singly or in corymbiform arrays.
    Involucres hemispheric to patelliform, 8–12+ mm diam.
    Phyllaries persistent, 28–60+ in 2–5 series, distinct, broadly ovate, unequal to subequal, margins and apices (pale to dark-brown or black) narrowly to widely scarious (abaxial faces glabrous).
    Receptacles convex to conic (± solid), epaleate.
    Ray-florets [0] 10–34+, pistillate, fertile;
    corollas white [seldom pinkish], laminae mostly oblong.
    Disc-florets 300–500, bisexual, fertile;
    corollas yellow [greenish], tubes cylindric (sessile-glandular), throats narrowly campanulate (cylindric or compressed), lobes 5, deltate (with resin sacs).
    Cypselae trigonous, ± compressed (apices truncate), ribs 3–5 (0–2 abaxial, 2 lateral, 1 adaxial, usually whitish, relatively thick, smooth), faces often rugose or tuberculate abaxially and between ribs and glabrous (pericarps sometimes with myxogenic cells and usually 2–3, sometimes 1–5, abaxial-apical resin sacs; embryo-sac development tetrasporic);
