| Perennials, 15–90 cm; rhizomatous to subrhizomatous, fibrous-rooted, caudices usually branched, woody, thick. |
Perennials, 2–10 cm; taprooted, caudices with relatively short and thick branches. |
erect, moderately to densely hirsute (hairs 0.5–0.8 mm), eglandular. |
erect, hispido-hirsutulous to hirsute (hairs spreading, stiff, usually of unequal lengths, relatively thick-based), minutely glandular. |
basal (usually withering by flowering) and cauline; basal blades oblanceolate-spatulate, 30–80 × 6–20(–27) mm, margins entire, faces evenly hirsute to strigoso-hirsute, usually eglandular; cauline blades lanceolate to oblong, oblong-ovate, or broadly ovate, nearly even-sized distally or sometimes mid largest (continuing to immediately proximal to heads, bases clasping to 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. |

Erigeron subtrinervis is variable in vestiture, perhaps reflecting gene exchange with E. speciosus. Erigeron speciosus var. mollis (A. Gray) S. L. Welsh may be a recurrent hybrid; it is identified here within E. subtrinervis. (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.
