L. Hartman& M. A. Lane, gen. nov. (Compositae: Astereae), is named to accommodate the "phyllo- cephalus complex," formerlyof Haplopappus Cass. sect. Blepharodon DC. The new combinationsare R. phyllocephalus (DC.) R. L. Hartman& M. A. Lane, R. annua (Rydb.) R. L. Hartman& M. A. Lane, and R. aurea (A. Gray) R. L. Hartman & M. A. Lane. This transfercompletes the reclassificationof the North American species of Haplopappus sensu Hall, leaving that genus exclusively South American.Rayjacksonia has a base chromosomenumber of x = 6. Furthermore,it shares abruptlyampliate disk corollas, deltatedisk style-branchappendages, and corolla epidermalcell type,among other features,with Grindelia, Isocoma, Olivaea, Prionopsis, Stephanodoria, and Xanthocephalum.Phylogenetic analyses of morphologicaland chloroplastDNA restrictionsite data, taken together,demonstrate that these genera are closely related but distinct. Key words: Astereae; Asteraceae; Compositae; Haplopappus; Rayjacksonia.
