| Perennials, 3–12 cm; taprooted, caudices branched. |
Annuals or rarely short-lived perennials, 12–50(–80) cm; taprooted or rarely fibrous-rooted. |
erect, densely pilose to hirsute or villoso-hirsute (hairs usually slightly ascending, loose, often mixed in orientations, of unequal lengths, relatively thin-based), eglandular. |
(single or multiple from bases) usually basally ascending, strigose to villous, often slightly and minutely stipitate-glandular near to heads. |
mostly basal (persistent), (petioles prominently ciliate, hairs thick-based, spreading); blades linear to linear-oblanceolate, 20–40 × 1–2 mm, margins entire, faces finely hirsute, eglandular; cauline reduced, restricted to proximal 1/3 of stems. |
basal (usually not persistent) and cauline; blades narrowly lanceolate to oblanceolate, basal (5–)20–50 × 3–9 mm, cauline gradually reduced distally, margins entire or proximal shallowly crenate to serrate with 1–3 pairs of teeth, faces sparsely strigose, eglandular. |
5–7 × 8–16 mm. |
2.5–4 × (3–)5–9 mm. |
mostly 30–60; corollas usually white, sometimes fading pink, rarely blue, 5–10 mm, laminae loosely coiling. |
60–110; corollas white, 2.5–5(–7) mm, laminae not reflexing or coiling. |

1.2–2 mm (throats slightly indurate and inflated). |
in 2–3 series, hirsute to hirsuto-strigose, minutely glandular. |
in 2–3 series (margins scarious at least in inner), sparsely hirsute, minutely glandular. |

Erigeron disparipilus is similar to E. nanus but less variable. The range of E. disparipilus barely contacts that of E. nanus in southeastern Idaho and they have different ecologies; blue rays of E. disparipilus in Owyhee County may indicate that hybridization occurs.

In Arizona, Erigeron versicolor grows in meadows, along creeks, and in pine-aspen-spruce areas. Erigeron versicolor is distinguished by its annual duration, nodding buds, conic receptacles, broad phyllaries, and pappi of only minute crowns. The species appears to be disjunctly divided among three regions in the United States and Mexico (D. C. D. De Jong and G. L. Nesom 1996), and habitats vary widely. This is an unusual distribution. There is much variation in duration, root type, orientation of stem pubescence, elaboration of the pappus crown, and achene vestiture, and this morphologic variation does not appear to be strongly correlated with geography.
