Annuals or perennials. Leaves entire or ± toothed. Involucres campanulate to depressed-hemispheric, hemispheric, or obconic. Phyllaries ± persistent or falling with cypselae, distinct. Receptacles narrowly conic to conic (subulate in L. leptalea), muricate or papillate, glabrous. Ray corollas bright yellow, laminae 2.5–16 mm, floral pigments turning deep red in dilute aqueous alkali. Disc corolla lobes 5; anther appendages deltate to sublanceolate or subulate (broadened distal to bases); style apices ± deltate with apical tufts of hairs and subapical fringes of shorter hairs. Cypselae to 4 mm; epappose or pappose. 2n = 16, 32, 48.
Distribution
w United States, nw Mexico.
Discussion
Species 4 (4 in the flora).
Perennial lasthenias are found only in sect. Amphiachaenia. Epappose plants of sect. Amphiachaenia are more likely to be found in coastal populations and may constitute entire local populations.
