Capitula 1.5 – 2.5 cm across, on sparsely hairy short peduncles. Phyllaries 3.5 – 4.5 mm long, hairy at the bases. Cypselas 2.5 – 3 mm long. 3 Allardia glabra <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=242101008> + Capitula 2.5 – 3.5 cm across, on glabrous peduncles. Phyllaries 6 – 7 mm long, glabrous all over. Cypselas 3 – 3.5 mm long. 4 Allardia tridactylites <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=242101012> Looking at head size Tabish ji looks right. although peduncles would confirm.
