Perityle vitreomontana Warnock

Perityle vitreomontana is known only from in the Glass Mountains of Brewster County. Although P. vitreomontana resembles P. bisetosa, close study of the pappus reveals that it belongs in sect. Pappothrix. Leaf and flower morphology suggest the relationship of P. vitreomontana to P. rupestris var. albiflora.

Plants 3–10 cm (densely leafy); pilose. Leaves: petioles 2–4 mm; blades subovate to ovate-deltate, 5–7(–10) × 5–8(–12) mm, margins obtuse-serrate to incised-lobed. Heads usually in corymbiform arrays, rarely borne singly, 6–7 × 3–4 mm. Peduncles 1–3(–8) mm. Involucres narrowly campanulate. Phyllaries 9–12, linear-lanceolate, 4–5 × 0.8–1.2 mm. Disc florets 11–16; corollas white, tubes 1 mm, throats tubular, 2.5 mm, lobes 1 mm. Cypselae 1.9–2 mm; pappi of 2–6 bristles 0.5–2 mm plus vestigial nubs between bristles, or of 10–20 bristles 0.1–2 mm. 2n = 34.
