Biology:Ignurbia
From HandWiki
Ignurbia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. It contains a single species, Ignurbia constanzae, which is endemic to Hispaniola.[1] It is an erect, little-branched, suffrutescent herb which grows from 0.5 to 2 meters tall. It is native to montane humid forest, broad-leaved scrub, and along streams from 1250 to 2400 meters elevation, often growing with Brunellia comocladifolia, Garrya fadyenii, and sometimes Pinus occidentalis.[2]
The species was first described as Senecio constanzae by Ignatz Urban in 1912. In 2006 Bertil Nordenstam placed the species in a new monotypic genus, Ignurbia, which he named in honor of Urban.[2]
