|discussion=<p><i>Hypericum gentianoides</i> is smaller in all parts than <i>H. drummondii</i> and more branched. The relatively long, narrow capsule is diagnostic, as are the relatively small, often scalelike leaves.</p><!--
--><p><i>Hypericum</i> sarothra Michaux and Sarothra hypericoides Nuttall are illegitimate names that pertain here.</p>
