Heads 2–20, in loose cymiform arrays. Calyculi of 3–10, narrowly lanceolate to linear, densely setose and stipitate-glandular bractlets 3–5 mm. Involucres cylindro-campanulate, 14–24 × 5–15 mm. Phyllaries 7–12, lanceolate, 14–20 mm (margins yellowish, not scarious), apices long-acuminate, abaxial faces densely and coarsely setose, adaxial glabrous or with fine, appressed, yellowish hairs.
