Glossary (beta!)

Origin/Endemic status: Native

Taxonomy Comments: Fernald (1950) and Small (1933) recognized this taxon as a species distinct from C. micrantha; Ownbey reduced it to a subspecies, citing inadequate morphological differences and some alleged intermediates in OK and MO. The two taxa appear readily separable on morphological, ecological, and geographical grounds; species status seems warranted.
