Plants cespitose, caudex well-developed, thick, often-branched, covered with persistent petiolar remains; not scapose; usually pubescent. Stems erect to decumbent, unbranched or branched distally, densely pubescent. Leaves basal and cauline; petiolate or sessile; basal rosulate, petiolate, blade margins usually 1- or 2-pinnatisect, rarely entire. Racemes (corymbose, several-flowered), often considerably elongated in fruit. Fruiting pedicels ascending, spreading, suberect, or divaricate [recurved], slender. Flowers: sepals (sometimes persistent), oblong [ovate]; petals spatulate to obovate or suborbicular, (longer than sepals), claw differentiated from blade, (apex rounded); stamens slightly tetradynamous; filaments often dilated basally; anthers ovate or oblong, (apex obtuse); nectar glands usually confluent, subtending bases of stamens, median glands present or not. Fruits siliques or silicles, usually sessile, rarely shortly stipitate, linear, oblong, obovoid, ellipsoid, spatulate, oblanceolate, suboblong, or pyriform [fusiform, ovoid, suborbicular], smooth, 4-angled, angustiseptate, terete, or subterete [latiseptate]; valves each with prominent or obscure midvein, usually glabrous; replum rounded; septum complete or perforated; ovules 4–18 per ovary; stigma capitate. Seeds plump, not winged, usually oblong, rarely oblong-lanceolate; seed coat (minutely reticulate), not mucilaginous when wetted; cotyledons incumbent or accumbent.
