Annuals, biennials, or short-lived perennials, 4–80 cm; fibrous-rooted, caudices simple. |
erect, moderately to densely strigose (hairs appressed to ascending, 0.1–0.8(–2) mm, sometimes spreading at bases or throughout), eglandular or glands minute, non-capitate. |
erect (green proximally, leafy to arrays), hirsuto-villous to villous proximally, loosely strigose to sparsely hirsute distally, minutely glandular. |
basal (sometimes persistent) and cauline; blades oblanceolate, margins usually deeply pinnatifid (lobes in 2–5 pairs), sometimes dentate to entire, faces strigose, eglandular; basal 10–60 × 6–35 mm, cauline gradually reduced distally. |
basal (persistent or withering by flowering) and cauline; basal blades oblanceolate to obovate, (15–)30–110(–150) × 10–25(–40) mm, margins shallowly crenate to coarsely serrate or pinnately lobed, faces sparsely hirsute to villous, eglandular; cauline blades oblong-oblanceolate to lanceolate, gradually reduced distally (bases clasping to auriculate-clasping). |
3.5–5 × 7–12 mm. |
4–6 × 6–15 mm. |
70–150; corollas white, drying white, (2–)6–15 mm, laminae reflexing. |
150–250(–400); corollas usually white, sometimes pinkish, 5–10 mm, laminae not coiling or tardily coiling. |
2.5–3.3 mm (throats somewhat white-indurate, not inflated). |
2.1–3.2 mm. |
in 3–4 series, strigose to hirsute (hairs arising mostly from midregion), usually minutely glandular, rarely eglandular. |
in 2–3 series (sometimes basally connate), hirsuto-villous to sparsely hirsute or glabrous, sometimes minutely glandular. |
(1–)5–15(–30) in loosely corymbiform arrays. |
(1–)3–35 usually in corymbiform arrays (ultimate branches arising near stem tips). |
1–1.3 mm, 2(–4)–nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: (outer 0) inner (readily falling) of (8–)10–12 bristles. |
0.6–1.1 mm, 2-nerved, faces sparsely strigose; pappi: outer of setae, inner of 15–20(–30) bristles. |

Relatively large, pinnatifid leaves are typical of Erigeron neomexicanus; plants with nearly entire leaves can be identified by the strongly perennial habit, white, reflexing rays, and 10–12 readily falling pappus bristles. Erigeron neomexicanus and E. oreophilus were treated by A. Cronquist (1947) as varieties of one species, and their morphologic similarity and the closeness of their geographic ranges support that hypothesis. But relatively few collections are found that could be regarded as intermediates, and both forms sometimes grow in proximity, apparently without a range of intermediates. In some Arizona mountain ranges, apparently only one or the other taxon occurs. Still, the possibility exists that these are populational segregants of a single species (see further comments in G. L. Nesom 1989d). (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
