Annuals, (10–)20–40(–60) cm (taprooted). Herbage densely fetid-viscid (hairs glandular). Stems single. Leaves evenly distributed; petiolate; blades obovate to oblong (pinnately dissected to pinnatifid), 2–7 × 1.5–4 cm, bases tapered or ± truncate, ultimate margins wavy or crenate-dentate (distal leaves sessile, smaller, ± clasping). Heads (1–)3–8(–30) in irregular, corymbiform arrays. Calyculi of 2–5 bractlets (largest to 4 mm). Phyllaries (± 13) ± 21, 5–7 mm, tips black. Ray florets ± 13; corolla laminae 1–2 mm (usually coiled, scarcely surpassing phyllaries). Cypselae usually glabrous, sometimes hairy. 2n = 40.
Phenology: Flowering spring–fall.
Habitat: Disturbed sites, especially open sandy or gravelly places
Elevation: 1–300 m

Discussion
Senecio viscosus is a smelly, Eurasian weed now widely scattered in areas of cool damp climates, often as a casual waif. The viscid hairs trap wind-blown particles of sand, dust, and soot, which give the surfaces varying textures and colors.
