Baccharis dioica Vahl
BROOMBUSH FALSEWILLOW
**
This species was historically known from the Brickell Hammock area near downtown Miami, and is considered extirpated from Florida. Ledin (1951) wrote "Not common in our area. Confined to certain hammocks especially near the coast on Cutler Road below Miami." The name B. dioica has often been misapplied to specimens of B. halimifolia with mostly entire to subentire leaves.
