An annual, delicate herb to 45 cm tall, often profusely branched. Leaves alternate, linear, broadly sessile, to 25 × 1 mm (rarely to 1.5 mm), thickish, strongly bristly-margined, glandular, rarely glabrescent; leaves also present in upper stem parts, only slightly shorter than lower leaves. Capitula medium-sized, on peduncles to 6 cm long, bristly-glandular. Involucre ca. 3-seriate, ca. 5 mm in diameter; outer phyllaries 3 × 0.3 mm, inner 4 × 1 mm, abruptly narrowed to a narrow apex, all bristly-glandular with resin streaks. Ray florets ca. 30, ligula ca. 10 × 1.5 mm, pale blue. Disc florets numerous, corolla yellow, 2.5 mm long, style appendages short, triangular. Pappus bristles numerous, white, distinctly barbellate, to 2.5 mm long, deciduous. Achenes 1.5 × 0.5 mm, obovate, black, smooth, eciliate, sparsely covered with spoon-shaped hairs.

Von der oft mit F. tenella verwechselten F. australis unterscheidet sich die erstere durch die verlängerten basalen Blätter, die spitz sind und randlich kräftige, breitbasige Borsten besitzen, durch die löffelartig verbreiterten Achänenhaare, die kürzeren Griffelschenkel (bis 0.5 mm) und die schwach blau gefärbten Zungenblüten. Die vier Unterarten, in die F. tenella aufgeteilt wird, sind in ihren Ecktypen sehr charakteristisch und daher zum Teil als eigene Arten beschrieben. Es bestehen jedoch zwischen allen vier Sippen Übergänge, die eine spezifische Trennung als unratsam erscheinen lassen. Die Beziehungen laufen besonders von der ssp. cotuloides (klein, vielköpfig) über die ssp. pusilla (klein wenigköpfig, basal barbellate Pappusborsten) zur ssp. tenella (relativ kräftig, Pappusborsten basal nicht barbellat) und zur ssp. longifolia (kräftig, basale Blätter besonders lang, mit Ausläufern). Doch bestehen auch direkte Beziehungen besonders zwischen den ssp. longifolia und pusilla. From: Grau, HRJ. 1973. Revision der gattung Felicia (Asteraceae). Mitt. Bot. Staatssamml. München 9: 195-705. [All rights reserved]
Filago australis, distinguished from the often-confused F. tenella by its elongate, acute basal leaves with strong, broad-based marginal bristles, spatulate achene hairs, shorter style branches (to 0.5 mm), and faintly blue ligules. The four subspecies of F. tenella, while possessing characteristic extreme forms, exhibit intergradation precluding definitive specific separation. Relationships are evident from ssp. cotuloides to ssp. pusilla to ssp. tenella to ssp. longifolia, with additional direct links between ssp. longifolia and ssp. pusilla.
