Summary Polyploidy is reported for the first time for Montanoa Cerv., in which x = 19; we here report speciesat the 6 x , 8 x , and 12 x levels. The 12 x count ( n = 110‐120) was originally reported, owing to a printing error, as Melanthera aspera (Jacq.) Rendl., and is significant as it is the highest reported number in Compositae.
