Guizotia (after Guizot, the celebrated historian). Compositae. Annual herbs (of about five species) from tropical Africa, one of which has some economic interest from its oil-producing seeds. The plants have yellow heads, about 2 in. across, with 8 broad, 3-toothed rays and a leafy outer involucre. Seeds can be secured by the pound from S. Fla., and they are listed among miscellaneous agricultural seeds in a few of the largest European catalogues. The plant is cult, in India for the oil.
