    Ursinia anethoides outside of the head
    Author: Ivan Lätti
    Photographer: Thabo Maphisa

    The Ursinia anethoides involucre in picture consists of about four rows of bracts. The inner row is tipped with large, rounded, papery membranes, not clearly visible over the green ones.

    The outer rows of bracts are smaller and decreasing in size to the outside, the innermost ones dark-margined, as well as dark brown in the upper central parts.

    The reddish peduncle has a few thin, white longitudinal lines (Vlok and Schutte-Vlok, 2015; Bond and Goldblatt, 1984; Gledhill, 1981; iNaturalist).
