Abstract
Chromosome counts of 2n = 20 for specimens of Senecio madagascariensis from Australia and from Madagascar are reported. By contrast, counts of 2n = 40 for a diversity of specimens of the S. lautus sensu late co mplex are reported. These results support previous separation of these taxa on morphological grounds.
