Henri Cassini
Count Alexandre Henri Gabriel de Cassini (9 May 1781 – 23 April 1832) was a French botanist and naturalist, who specialised in the sunflower family (Asteraceae) (then known as family Compositae). He was the youngest of five children of Jacques Dominique, Comte de Cassini, famous for completing the map of France, who had succeeded his father as the director of the Paris Observatory. He was also the great-great-grandson of famous Italian-French astronomer, Giovanni Domenico Cassini, discoverer of Jupiter's Great Red Spot and the Cassini division in Saturn's rings. The genus '' Cassinia'' was named in his honour by the botanist Robert Brown. He named many flowering plants and new genera in the sunflower family (Asteraceae), many of them from North America. He published 65 papers and 11 reviews in the '' ouveauBulletin des Sciences'' of the Société Philomatique de Paris between 1812 and 1821. In 1825, Cassini placed the North American taxa of '' Prenanthes'' (family Aste ...

Flowering Plant
Flowering plants are plants that bear flowers and fruits, and form the clade Angiospermae (), commonly called angiosperms. They include all forbs (flowering plants without a woody stem), grasses and grass-like plants, a vast majority of broad-leaved trees, shrubs and vines, and most aquatic plants. The term "angiosperm" is derived from the Greek words ἀγγεῖον / ('container, vessel') and σπέρμα / ('seed'), meaning that the seeds are enclosed within a fruit. They are by far the most diverse group of land plants with 64 orders, 416 families, approximately 13,000 known genera and 300,000 known species. Angiosperms were formerly called Magnoliophyta (). Angiosperms are distinguished from the other seed-producing plants, the gymnosperms, by having flowers, xylem consisting of vessel elements instead of tracheids, endosperm within their seeds, and fruits that completely envelop the seeds. The ancestors of flowering plants diverged from the common ance ...

Asteraceae
The family Asteraceae, alternatively Compositae, consists of over 32,000 known species of flowering plants in over 1,900 genera within the order Asterales. Commonly referred to as the aster, daisy, composite, or sunflower family, Compositae were first described in the year 1740. The number of species in Asteraceae is rivaled only by the Orchidaceae, and which is the larger family is unclear as the quantity of extant species in each family is unknown. Most species of Asteraceae are annual, biennial, or perennial herbaceous plants, but there are also shrubs, vines, and trees. The family has a widespread distribution, from subpolar to tropical regions in a wide variety of habitats. Most occur in hot desert and cold or hot semi-desert climates, and they are found on every continent but Antarctica. The primary common characteristic is the existence of sometimes hundreds of tiny individual florets which are held together by protective involucres in flower heads, or more t ...

Gnaphalieae
The Gnaphalieae are a tribe of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. It is most closely related to the tribes Anthemideae, Astereae, and Calenduleae. Characteristics This group is most diverse in South America, Southern Africa and Australia. There are only a few genera with species native to temperate regions: '' Anaphalis'', ''Antennaria'', '' Gamochaeta'', '' Helichrysum'', '' Leontopodium'' (Edelweiss), ''Phagnalon'', '' Diaperia'', and '' Pseudognaphalium''. The classification of the tribe into subtribes is unclear, with a number of past classifications not being supported by late 20th-century evidence. Genera Gnaphalieae genera recognized by the Global Compositae Database as April 2022: *''× Filfia'' *''Acanthocladium'' *'' Achyrocline'' *'' Acomis'' *''Actinobole'' *''Alatoseta'' *'' Ammobium'' *''Amphiglossa'' *''Anaphalioides'' *'' Anaphalis'' *''Anaxeton'' *''Ancistrocarphus'' *''Anderbergia'' *''Anemocarpa'' *''Angianthus'' *''Antennaria'' * ...
