Discussion

Varieties 2 (2 in the flora).

The name “Hymenoxys scaposa (de Candolle) K. F. Parker var. glabra (Nuttall) K. F. Parker” appears never to have been published. Parker did make the combination Hymenoxys acaulis (Pursh) K. F. Parker var. glabra (A. Gray) K. F. Parker based on Actinella scaposa (de Candolle) Nuttall var. glabra A. Gray, which she mistakenly called Actinea scaposa Nuttall var. glabra A. Gray.

Selected References
