Perennials, 5–25 cm; taprooted, caudexlike branches relatively thick, woody. |
basally decumbent, abruptly erect, usually glabrous or glabrate, rarely sparsely strigose on proximal 1/2, or hirsutulous proximally and strigose distally, or distally densely hirsutulous (hairs usually ± deflexed, sometimes loosely antrorsely ascending; var. keilii), eglandular. |
ascending (without axillary tufts of leaves), glabrous, eglandular. |
cauline; blades narrowly oblong-oblanceolate to linear, 20–60 × 2–7 mm, seldom reduced distally, margins entire, faces glabrous, sparsely strigose, or hispid, eglandular. |
cauline (all commonly withering early in season); proximal blades oblanceolate to narrowly oblanceolate, 20–50(–100) × 0.5–1(–15) mm, abruptly reduced distally, becoming linear to filiform, mid and distal shorter than internodes, margins entire, usually eciliate, sometimes sparsely ciliate, faces sparsely and minutely strigose or glabrous, eglandular. |

Erigeron oxyphyllus is a member of sect. Pycnophyllum and is set apart from the rest of the section by its cauline leaves, sharply reduced in length distally, and by its more southeastern geographic range (versus the California-centered distribution of the rest of the section).
