Note: Britton (1891) cited, under Eupatorium heptanthum Sch.Bip. (nom. nud.), that a Rusby collection
resembled ‗E. azangaroense’, q.v. Ageratina azangaroensis: ‗Near La Paz, 10,000 ft. ([Rusby] 1733).‘, linking it
with Mandon 260 and Lechler 1776 (from Peru). Clearly Britton was referring to part of the Mandon 260
collection; see also Ageratina azangaroenses.
