| Biennials or perennials, 7–50(–70) cm; rhizomatous, caudices or rhizomes relatively short and thickened, simple or branched, usually appearing merely fibrous-rooted. |
Perennials, 2–10 cm; taprooted, caudices with relatively short and thick branches. |
erect or slightly basally ascending, hirsute or hirsuto-villous to strigose or glabrate, eglandular. |
erect, hispido-hirsutulous to hirsute (hairs spreading, stiff, usually of unequal lengths, relatively thick-based), minutely glandular. |
basal (persistent) and cauline; basal blades oblanceolate to oblanceolate-spatulate, 40–150 × 3–15 mm, margins usually entire, sometimes shallowly dentate, faces hirsute or hirsuto-villous to sparsely strigose or glabrate, eglandular; cauline blades usually becoming lanceolate, abruptly or gradually reduced distally (bases sometimes subclasping). |
mostly basal (persistent) (petioles prominently ciliate, hairs thick-based, spreading); blades linear-oblanceolate, 20–40 × 1–2(–3) mm, margins entire, often coarsely spreading-ciliate, faces hispido-hirsute to hirsute or glabrous, abaxial sometimes glabrous, sometimes sparsely minutely glandular; cauline abruptly reduced, restricted to proximal 1/3 of stems. |

125–175; corollas white to pink or blue, 8–15 mm, laminae (nearly filiform) coiling tardily at tips. |

Varieties 2 (2 in the flora). Erigeron glabellus is recognized by its subsimple caudices and fibrous-rooted bases, relatively numerous rays with nearly filiform laminae, and nonglandular vestiture. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Erigeron nanus is unusually variable in leaf vestiture. The tendency (especially in Cassia County, Idaho) for sparsely strigose adaxial and glabrous abaxial leaf faces is similar to that of the E. radicatus group; longer disc corollas and the strong tendency for unequal-length stem hairs, plus spreading-ciliate petioles, place E. nanus closer to E. disparipilus and E. poliospermus.
