Heads in dense, corymbiform arrays (held beyond the leaves, axes minutely bracteate, bracts abruptly differentiated from cauline leaves). Involucres broadly campanulate to cupulate, 4.5–6 × 5–10 mm. Phyllaries greenish to creamy or tan, sometimes slightly purple, glandular-tomentose. Corollas whitish to pink-lavender. Pappi tardily falling, bristles distinct. 2n = 20.

Discussion

Pluchea carolinensis is naturalized in the Hawaiian Islands and other Pacific Islands.

The names Pluchea odorata of authors, not (Linnaeus) Cassini, and P. symphytifolia of authors, not Conyza symphytifolia Miller in the sense of W. T. Gillis (1977), have been used for plants here called Pluchea carolinensis. The taxon was long identified as P. odorata (R. K. Godfrey 1952) and was known as P. [Conyza] symphytifolia (Miller) Gillis for a while. Conyza symphytifolia Miller is a synonym of Neurolaena lobata (Linnaeus) Cassini (R. Khan and C. E. Jarvis 1989).
