Discussion
Carduus acanthoides has been reported as growing in Connecticut, Delaware, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maine, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, and Washington; I have not seen specimens from those states. It was collected only once in New Brunswick in 1992.
Carduus acanthoides is a serious weed in pasturelands, where it displaces and suppresses growth of other plants and limits access of grazing animals to more palatable plants (A. M. Desrochers et al. 1988). It sometimes grows in dense stands.
