DISCUSSIONIlISCUSSIOl\' Because many of the counts counts presented herehere corroboratecOIToborate previous chromosomal reports,reports. the discussions are restricted either to first counts or to new reports for genera, species,specie.;;;, or varieties. The order of cornment.:\rycommentary will follow the se-se­ (illeneequence of tribes tl'ilJes in the classification of Hoffmann (1890.94),(1890-94), which is the same as that used in Table 1. References for statements regarding the range of chromosomal variation within genera will wilJ not be given; docnmentationdocumentation for thesethef\e counts comes from the several major sources cited in thethe introduction to thisthi~ paper.pape!'.

QlIrOur first report for Tr;tlm:Tridax {f'"lliloihltenuifolia Rose, n = 9 (Fig. 18), fits well with the established base number of x = 9 for !lect.sect. T,-idlIXTridax to which T. tCllui[oliatenuifolia belongs (Powell,(Powel\, 196!i).1965). Of the 14 specie,.,species of Zall/z(wiflZaluzania recognized by Sharp (!9:lrl),(1935), six have been counted with definite numbersllum1Jers of nn=l&= 16 and 18. QurOur first report, n11= = 17 (Fig. 19), for Z. (JmyalUlgrayana Robins. & Greenm. firmly e,<;tablishesestablishes this as a new chromosomal level for the genus (a previous count of n = 17 ± 1 for Z. montagnaefoliamontomwc/olia Sch.-Bip. was reportedreported uyby Powell and Turner, 1£163).1963). .HELF.NIEAE. ScllkllhriaSchkuhria pinnatapil/nala (Lam.) Cabrera has been counted before as 2n = 20 (Co\'as(Covas and Schnack, 1946), and var.val" virgalavirgata (LaLlave) Heiser of the same species has been reported a:o.as nw = ca. 20 (Turner 1'1et al., 1962). Recently fo.IcVaughMcVaugh (1972) transferred S. anlhcmoidcaanthemoidea (DC.) Coult.COlill. val".var. flual1'1IlalCtlBisguatemalensis (Rydb.) Heiser to S. lJillnala,pinnata, and our counts of n =)0= 10 (Fig. 20) forfOi' this taxon are the firstfit'st reports. A count of nII = 11 (Table 1) was obtainedobtailled fromfrom material tentatively identified asliS S. (wlhl'moidru.anthemoidea. However, our voucher specimen differs from thethe chal'aeterscharacters of thisthis speciesspecies as delimited by Heiser (19.lfi)(1945) in having more numerous disc florets and large raymy florets, as in S. schkuh­schkllh­ rioidesrioidN'. (Link & Otto) Thellung in Fedde.Fedele. In pappus struc­stJ'uc­ ture, though, our plants are much more similar to S. anthe­anthl'­ moidrnmoidea than to S. sch!whl'l·oidrs.schkuhrioides. This collection may repre­repre­ sentsent a previously undescribed taxon.

RENECIONEAE.SENECIONEAE. Our first reports of nII = en.ca. 30 for Senecio hal'fll)cr,iihartwegii Benth. :lIldand 11n = 22 (Fig. 21) for S. i-iincinatus1'1l11citwtuJ; Less,Less. Meare consistent with counts reported previously for nthel'other taxa of the genus. Thirty-three specie!!species of SenecioSCIlI'r;rJ 1975] Chromosome Counts •- KeilReil & Stuessy 181181 have been reported a"as Itn = 30 and six arcare known with nIt = 22. Although the Kenusgenus is based either on x.1' = 5 (Barkley, 1962)191;~) or .rx = 10 (Ornduff,(Ol'ndufT. Raven, Kyhos, & Kruckeberg,KruckeberK, 19(;3;1963; Orndllff,Ornduff, Mosquin,r.to.~quin, Kyhos,Kyho.'1, & Raven,Ra"en, 1967),19(7), the diver­ sity of haploid numbers isi.~ great, representing 30 different chromosomal levels from nII -= fi5 to n = ca. 92. 92.
