Annuals; glabrous or puberulent. Stems often several from base, usually procumbent to decumbent, rarely ascending, branched distally, (0.3–)0.6–2.5(–3.5) dm. Basal leaves rosulate; petiole (1–)2–5(–5.8) cm; blade 1- or 2-pinnatisect, (3–)4–10(–15) cm, margins (of lobes) entire or dentate. Cauline leaves shortly petiolate; blade pinnatisect, base cuneate, not auriculate, margins (of lobes) entire or dentate, (similar to basal, smaller and less divided distally). Racemes (leaf-opposed), ± slightly elongated in fruit; rachis glabrous. Fruiting pedicels ascending, straight, (stout, terete), (0.7–)1–2(–2.4) × 0.4–0.5 mm, glabrous. Flowers: sepals (persistent), oblong, 1–1.5 × 0.5–0.6 mm; petals white, obovate to obovate-oblong, 1–2 × 0.4–0.6 mm, claw absent; stamens 6; filaments (median pairs) 0.7–1 mm, (glabrous); anthers 0.15–0.25 mm. Fruits (indehiscent), reniform to ovate-cordate, 2.3–3.4 × 3–4.4 mm, apically not winged, apical notch absent; valves thick, rugose-verrucose, with distinct ridges, prominently veined, glabrous; style 0.2–0.7 mm. Seeds ovate-oblong, (curved, not winged), 1.2–1.6 × 0.7–1 mm. 2n = 32.
