Abstract
Dubautia kenwoodii G. Carr from the Hawaiian Island of Kaua'i is descr ibed and illustrated. The new species is distinguished from congeners by virtue of its combination of uniseriate, peripheral, very firmly co alescent receptacular bracts, cymose-glomerate capitula, and coriaceou s, lustrous leaves with sharply cartilaginous-toothed margins acid abr uptly narrowed, broadly clasping bases.
