Koekemoer, Marinda, 2016, A monograph of Stoebe and Seriphium (Gnaphalieae, Asteraceae) in southern Africa and neighbouring islands, Phytotaxa 242 (1), pp. 448-450 : 448-450

1. Stoebe aethiopica Linnaeus (1753: 831) . Type:— LINN 1048.1 (LINN!, holotype).

= Seriphium juniperifolium Lamarck (1783: 272) . Type:— Willdenow herb. n. 16795 (P!, holotype).

= Stoebe phylicoides Thunberg (1800: 169) . Type:— Thunberg s.n. sub UPS-THUNB20978 (UPS!).

Vernacular name: Knoppiesslangbos, Juniper-leafed Stoebe

Robust, erect, woody, often single-stemmed, variable shrubs, up to 1.6 m tall, height varying according to the surrounding vegetation or age of the veld, usually branching freely. Branches strong, rigid, main branch up to 25 mm in diam., secondary branches up to 10 mm in diam., very densely or sparsely leafy, leaf scars prominent on bare branches; young growth villous or pubescent, becoming almost glabrous with age. Leaves up to 10 × 3 mm; very rigid; varying from almost flat, broadly cymbiform and straight to strongly involute, narrowly triangular, twisted, geniculate or recurved; abaxial surface smooth or velutinous towards the base, often with waxy deposits, especially around stomata where it forms small hollow, tubular protrusions; adaxial surface tomentose, hairs long, flexible with a hairpin bent in the middle, upper end twisted around lower half; leaf apex developed into a very strong mucro. Synflorescences consisting of many clusters of capitula in funnel-shaped or very tight, globose, terminal heads, up to 20 (–25) mm in diam., subtended by a rosette of leaves; clusters of 3–8 capitula subtended by very rigid, flat leaves. Capitula homogamous, discoid, 1-flowered, in very tight arrangements. Receptacle reduced to short stalks on a swollen base. Involucral bracts narrow, almost linear, slightly wider toward the tips, 5–6 mm long; tips distinctly darker than the rest of the bracts, glabrous or tomentose. Disc florets bisexual, white, in dry material lower half pale-yellow and upper half dark brown; widening in upper half; corolla lobes triangular, spreading or reflexed. Nectaries present, often bright orange. Cypselas tomentose, with straight, antrorse hairs in a tidy arrangement; hair tips rounded; annulus well developed, consisting of a ring of partially fused hairs clasping the pappus base. Pappus setae 18, shaft basally flattened, partially fused at the very base; barbed in lower half, upper half plumose; plumes ascending, very fine, tips acuminate; setae shorter than the corolla tube and just touching the lobe sinuses. Flowering September to November and occasionally up to March.

Distribution: —Throughout the Western Cape from the Penninsula and eastwards to Uniondale and Avontuur. Figure 19 .

Ecology: —Dense, moist fynbos at elevations ranging from 100 m to 1 900 m.

Conservation status: —Least Concern.

Notes:—Two very distinct leaf forms are known, which superficially appear very different. One form has flat cymbiform leaves, which are widest in the middle and generally adpressed or ascending. The other form has ericoid leaves, which are widest at the base and often geniculate and tightly inrolled. Levyns (1937) discussed the two forms and concluded that they were conspecific. Presently, there are many more specimens now available for examination and the variation can be studied more easily. The cypsela morphology of both forms is identical, and several specimens with both leaf forms on the same plant were examined: the flat, cymbiform leaves were inserted just below the synflorescence and the more ericoid leaves lower down the stem. Both forms are distributed in the same geographic areas and, although, the plants can look very different, there is no justification to subdivide the species.

A similar type of leaf variation was observed in Seriphium passerinoides on Réunion where linear ericoid leaves and small scale-like leaves can be found on the same plants .

Additional specimens examined:— SOUTH AFRICA, Western Cape. Without locality: 20 November 1934, Hafström (S); received 18 October 1913, Kuntze (K); Sprengel Herb. no. 502 (P-herb. Sch. Bip); Thunberg
