    The yellow Ursinia nana subsp. nana flowerheads fade to multiple, five-ribbed fruit.

    Each fruit has two rows of pappus attachments, the inner row consisting of five bristles or hair-like white scales, the outer row of five flat, white scales (Van Rooyen and Van Rooyen, 2019; Vlok and Schutte-Vlok, 2015; Leistner, (Ed.), 2000; Bond and Goldblatt, 1984; iNaturalist).
