Basal leaves (and proximal cauline) petiolate; blades oblanceolate to obovate or lyrate (pinnately lobed to pinnatifid, terminal lobes larger than laterals), 10–30+ × 10–20+ mm, bases tapering, ultimate margins ± crenate to serrate. Cauline leaves gradually to abruptly reduced (sessile; pinnatisect or entire). Heads 1–2(–5+) in cymiform arrays. Peduncles bracteate (bractlets purple-tinged), glabrous or glabrate. Calyculi 0 or inconspicuous (bractlets purple-tinged). Phyllaries 13, green (sometimes purple-tinged distally), 6–8 mm, glabrous. Ray florets 0 (rarely) or 10–12; corolla laminae 8–10 mm. Disc florets 45–60+; corolla tubes 3.5–4 mm, limbs 3–3.5 mm. Cypselae 1.5–2.5 mm, hirtellous on ribs; pappi 6–7 mm. 2n = 46.
