Abstract
The paper treats A. levitomentosa reproductive structures from an anatomical point of view. The species exhibited traits that are common in the Asteraceae family but also a few peculiarities such as a possibly five-carpel ovary, free non connate anthers and filaments fused to the corolla at different levels. Early stage embryos but no seeds were observed. Crystals have a presence limited to only certain areas: the integument, the ovary plateau, the anther walls and the connective.
