810C87C0FFDCFF80FF72FD8804BEF113.taxon	distribution	Distribution and ecology: — Ursinia arida is confined to the Richtersveld and northern Bushmanland in the Northern Cape Province (Fig. 3) and should be considered an endemic of the Gariep Center of Endemism (Van Wyk & Smith 2001). In the Richtersveld it occurs on a variety of substrates in vegetation types such as Dg 6 Helskloof Canyon Desert and Dg 2 Richtersberg Mountain Desert (Jürgens et al. 2006). The species appears to be particularly common in quartz-rich patches both in the Richtersveld (SKr 11 Rooiberg Quartz Vygieveld) and in Bushmanland (SKr 18 Bushmanland Inselberg Shrubland, SKr 19 Aggeneys Gravel Vygieveld) within the Succulent Karoo Biome (Mucina et al. 2006). We expect this species to be found also in southern Namibia, especially in the Fish River Canyon and in the desert landscapes of the Gariep River valley (upstream from Vioolsdrif and Noordoewer).	en	Magee, Anthony R., Boatwright, James S., Mucina, Ladislav (2014): Four new species of Ursinia (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) from South Africa, with an updated key to the genus in Namaqualand.

810C87C0FFDCFF80FF72FD8804BEF113.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnostic characters: — Ursinia arida shares the inconspicuous and transparent paleae appendages and acute involucral bracts with Ursinia nana but differs in that the inner paleae are lorate with elliptic appendages (Fig. 2 M), rather than oblong with small ovate appendages. The species has also often been misidentified as U. cakilefolia from which it differs in that the paleae are shorter than the florets and have elliptic appendages. In U. cakilefolia the paleae are longer than the florets, and therefore conspicuous, and have prominent scale-like, ovate to transversely ovate appendages (Fig. 2 K, L) that are brownish-yellow to brown-black and which enclose the developing florets giving the disc a reflective appearance (Fig. 1 I).	en	Magee, Anthony R., Boatwright, James S., Mucina, Ladislav (2014): Four new species of Ursinia (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) from South Africa, with an updated key to the genus in Namaqualand.

810C87C0FFDDFF81FF72FB3F0433F122.taxon	distribution	Distribution and ecology: — Ursinia glandulosa is an endemic species of the Richtersveld (Fig. 3) where it is found in two major vegetation types, i. e. SKr 8 Rosyntjiesberg Succulent Shrubland (here at high elevations, 1060 m on Rosyntjiesberg Quartzite) and SKr 1 Central Richtersveld Mountain Shrurbland (Mucina et al. 2006).	en	Magee, Anthony R., Boatwright, James S., Mucina, Ladislav (2014): Four new species of Ursinia (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) from South Africa, with an updated key to the genus in Namaqualand.

810C87C0FFDDFF81FF72FB3F0433F122.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnostic characters: — Ursinia glandulosa, as the name implies, differs from all other currently recognised Ursinia species by the conspicuous stalked glands on the leaves and branches (Fig. 1 P). This species has previously been confused with U. punctata Brown (1887: 670) with which it shares the woody perennial habit, weakly pinnatisect leaves, apical appendages only on the outer involucral bracts and the truncate paleae. It differs further from the latter in the short stout branches (Fig. 1 M), the densely white felty young leaves and involucral bracts (Fig. 1 N, O) and the presence of apical appendages (Fig. 2 E) only on the innermost involucral bracts (branches lanky, young leaves sparsely pilose, involucral bracts glabrescent to sparsely pilose and both inner two-most involucral bracts apically appendaged in U. punctata).	en	Magee, Anthony R., Boatwright, James S., Mucina, Ladislav (2014): Four new species of Ursinia (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) from South Africa, with an updated key to the genus in Namaqualand.

810C87C0FFDEFF82FF72FF3B04EEFEAB.taxon	distribution	Distribution and ecology: — Ursinia kamiesbergensis is restricted to coarse sandy soils derived from the Mokolian Kamieskroon Gneiss of the top plateaus of the Kamiesberg Mountains, Northern Cape Province (Fig. 3), within the Kamiesberg Center of Endemism (Van Wyk & Smith 2001). We may hypothesise that this species originally occurred in herb-rich and lightly, locally disturbed (grazing wildlife and burrowing animals) openings in the renosterveld scrub. Today it is very common especially in disturbed flats formerly used as arable fields formed by clearing of the renosterveld scrub on deep coarse-grained sandy and loamy-sandy soils. The vegetation type is the FRg 1 Namaqualand Granite Renosterveld (Fynbos Biome; Rebelo et al. 2006).	en	Magee, Anthony R., Boatwright, James S., Mucina, Ladislav (2014): Four new species of Ursinia (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) from South Africa, with an updated key to the genus in Namaqualand.

810C87C0FFDEFF82FF72FF3B04EEFEAB.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnostic characters: — Ursinia kamiesbergensis has previously been confused with U. cakilefolia but differs from that species in that the apical appendages of the involucral bracts are obtuse tipped and distinctly thick and opaque (Fig. 1 H, 2 J). Ursinia cakilefolia usually lacks prominent apical appendages on the involucral bracts (Fig. 2 K) but when prominent appendages are present, as found in populations around Kamieskroon (Fig. 2 L), they are acute to acuminate, thin, transparent and yellowish-brown. Prominent, obtuse apical appendages are also found in Ursinia speciosa (Fig. 2 I) but are distinctly transversely ovate and not as much ovate as in U. kamiesbergensis.	en	Magee, Anthony R., Boatwright, James S., Mucina, Ladislav (2014): Four new species of Ursinia (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) from South Africa, with an updated key to the genus in Namaqualand.

810C87C0FFDEFF82FF72FF3B04EEFEAB.taxon	discussion	According to the taxonomic concepts of Prassler (1967), U. kamiesbergensis falls within the variability of a more broadly conceived Ursinia cakilefolia. Yet it was Prassler’s remark on page 457 that brought the Kamiesberg taxon to our attention: ‘ Besonders erwähnt sei die Aufsammlung SALTER 1446 A, die durch breitere Hüllschuppen abweicht und bei der es sich vielleicht um eine distinkte Sippe handelt. Um dies zu entscheiden, wären jedoch weitere Aufsammlungen, wohl auch eingehende Feldstudien erforderlich. ’ (Translation: “ Noteworthy is the collection of Salter 1446 A which differs in broader bracts and perhaps should be recognized as a distinct species. To establish that, more collections as well as focused field studies are needed. ”). The description of U. kamiesbergensis herein confirms Prassler’s assumption.	en	Magee, Anthony R., Boatwright, James S., Mucina, Ladislav (2014): Four new species of Ursinia (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) from South Africa, with an updated key to the genus in Namaqualand.

810C87C0FFDFFF83FF72FF3B0255FD9F.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnostic characters: — Ursinia laciniata may be confused with the similar but allopatric U. punctata which is also a woody perennial with dissected leaves and truncate paleae. However, U. laciniata is easily distinguished from the latter by the polished, mostly trifid leaves with acute mucros, the glabrescent leaves and involucral bracts, the narrowly oblong middle involucral bracts with only the innermost bracts apically appendaged (Fig. 2 F) and the paleae with prominently laciniate apical margins (Fig. 2 F). In U. pungens the mature leaves are mostly 5 – 10 lobed with prominently long acuminate mucros, the leaves and involucral bracts are sparsely pilose, the middle involucral bracts are ovate to narrowly ovate with at least the inner two-most involucral bracts apically appendaged and the apical margins of the paleae are repand to slightly erose. Ursinia laciniata may be confused with the closely allied U. glandulosa with which it shares the acute leaf mucros and narrowly ovate middle involucral bracts but can be distinguished most prominently by the absence of stalked glands, the glabrescent leaves and involucre, and the laciniate paleae.	en	Magee, Anthony R., Boatwright, James S., Mucina, Ladislav (2014): Four new species of Ursinia (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) from South Africa, with an updated key to the genus in Namaqualand.
