  • Neopallasia is a genus of three species that occur in central Asia, including southern Siberia, Mongolia, and China [ 2 ] . It was segregated from Artemisia by Poljakov [ 66 ] on the basis of several autapomorphies, including pectinate leaves, central-sterile florets at the apex of the capitulum, ovoid-lanceolate anther appendages, and a rosette-shaped arrangement of cypselas on the receptacle.

  • In Artemisia s.l ., the typical limb of the Anthemideae-type ray florets are reduced to a membranous vestige, giving the impression that the small capitula are composed only of disk florets, referred to as disciform capitula (inflorescence) by Bremer and Humphries [ 2 ] . In other members of the genus, the ray flowers are absent, thus the capitulum is composed only of disk florets, i.e ., discoid.
