|discussion=<p><i>Arctium tomentosum</i> has been reported from Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Wisconsin; I have not seen specimens.The involucres of <i>Arctium tomentosum</i> are usually very densely cobwebby.</p><!--
--><p>Exceptional forms of <i>A. tomentosum</i> have nearly glabrous involucres. Forms of <i>A. minus</i> with especially cobwebby involucres have been misidentified as <i>A. tomentosum</i>; they lack the corymbiform capitulescence and glandular corollas of the latter.</p>
