Leaves mostly ascending; blades filiform (adaxially sulcate), 10–35 × 0.5–1.5 mm, midnerves obscure, apices apiculate, faces glabrous, gland-dotted (in circular, deep pits), resinous; axillary fascicles usually absent. Heads in paniculiform arrays (5–50 mm wide). Peduncles 2–12 mm (bracts 0–10, leaflike). Involucres subcylindric, 5.5–9 × 3.5–7 mm.
