--><span class="statement" id="st-undefined" data-properties=""><b>Plants </b>tufted, green, not glaucous, with woody base. <b>Stems</b> erect, (10–)20–40(–100) cm, glabrous to stipitate-glandular. <b>Leaves</b>: basal leaves sparse or absent; cauline leaves usually in 5–7 pairs, not significantly reduced; basal blades ascending, needlelike or narrowly linear, 2–6(–7) cm × 0.5–1 mm, ± rigid, herbaceous to subsucculent, apex blunt to spinose, usually glabrous, not glaucous. <b>Inflorescences</b> 10–30(–80)-flowered, diffuse cymes; branches spreading. <b>Pedicels</b> 15–55 mm, glabrous or stipitate-glandular. <b>Flowers</b>: sepals 1–3-veined, ovate to lanceolate or elliptic, 3–4.3 mm, to 5.5 mm in fruit, margins narrow to broad, apex acute to acuminate, glabrous to sparsely stipitate-glandular; petals white or yellowish, oblanceolate to spatulate, 6–9 mm, 1–1.5 times as long as sepals, apex entire or erose; nectaries as lateral and abaxial rounding of base of filaments opposite sepals, 0.3–0.4 mm. <b>Capsules</b> 6–7 mm, glabrous. <b>Seeds</b> reddish brown to blackish, suborbicular to pyriform or ovoid, 1.3–3.2 mm, tuberculate; tubercles low, rounded to conic.</span><!--

|discussion=<p>We now believe that <i>Eremogone macradenia</i> (in the sense of R. L. Hartman 1993) should be split into two species, with <i>E. macradenia</i> var. ferrisiae (Abrams) R. L. Hartman & Rabeler being elevated to species rank (Hartman and R. K. Rabeler 2004), as here. This became particularly obvious when comparing nectary morphology of <i>E. macradenia</i> (rectangular, two-lobed or truncate, 0.7–1.5 mm or narrowly longitudinally rectangular, truncate, densely minutely pubescent with erect to spreading hairs, 0.7–0.8 mm) with that of <i>E. ferrisiae</i> (rounded, 0.3–0.4 mm). Furthermore, the nectary types correlate well with sepal size and inflorescence type, as indicated in the key. This disposition agrees with the conclusions of M. F. Baad (1969).</p>
