Of conservation concern. Erigeron cavernensis has been treated as a synonym of E. uncialis (A. Cronquist 1994; G. L. Nesom 1992b); E. uncialis var. conjugans, which closely approaches E. cavernensis in its geographic range, is markedly different from the latter and perhaps more similar to E. cronquistii. Erigeron uncialis var. uncialis and E. uncialis var. conjugans, though different in vestiture, have more features in common among themselves and contrast as a unit with E. cavernensis.
