Enceliopsis argophylla, commonly known as the silverleaf sunray,[2] is a North American species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae.

[2] Enceliopsis argophylla is a perennial herb up to 80 cm (2.6 ft) tall, appearing silvery because of many small hairs pressed against the leaves.

The achene is strongly flattened, covered with small hairs, and sometimes with a pappus of 2 awns up to 2 mm long (unlike some of the related species).

[5] Found in Clark and Mohave Counties in the vicinity of the artificial reservoir Lake Mead,[2] it grows on stony barren slopes at 1,000 to 1,500 m (3,300 to 4,900 ft) altitude.

[4] It often grows alongside the rare golden bear-claw poppy or Las Vegas bear-poppy Arctomecon californica.
