Phyllaries: ovate (outer) or elliptic (inner), glabrous, apices usually obtuse to rounded, rarely truncate. Corollas usually pale purple, rarely white.

Discussion

Fleischmannia sonorae was reported for Arizona by T. H. Kearney and R. H. Peebles (1960) and F. Shreve and I. L. Wiggins (1964) as Eupatorium pycnocephalum Lessing [= Fleischmannia pycnocephala (Lessing) R. M. King & H. Robinson)]; revised concepts of this species group (B. L. Turner 1996+, vol. 2) place F. pycnocephala as a related species in Mexico and Central America, not reaching northwestward to Arizona.
