Ligules (11—) 13—20 mm, frequently absent. Disc 12-17 mm in diameter, subglobose in fruit. Receptacle hemispherical; scales oblong-obovate or obovate-cuneate, with a short, rigid acumen about equalling florets.

A. cossoniana Reichenb. fil. , Icon. Fl. Germ. 16: 63 (1854), described from E. Spain, with linear-lanceolate leaf-lobes, relatively longer ligules and corona may be considered, perhaps, as a subspecies of 49.

A. palumbi Lojac., FI. Sic. 2(1): 91 (1902), from Sicilia, which has been considered as a probable synonym of 49, requires further study.
