Conioselinum

not marked as a favorite taxon Conioselinum chinense (Linnaeus) Britton, Sterns, & Poggenburg. Common name: Hemlock-parsley. Phenology: Jul-Sep. Habitat: Moist or seepy calcareous or otherwise nutrient-rich forests, fens, and streambanks; (in NC) in nutrient-rich seepage over cliffs and through boulderfields at about 1500 m on the north slope of Grandfather Mountain (Avery County, NC); (in VA) on a north-facing greenstone cliff-top seep at 1150 m on Stony Man, Page County (VA). Distribution: NL west to ON, south to n. NJ, sc. PA, s. IN, n. IL, and IA, disjunct southwards in w. VA and w. NC; ne. Asia (e. Siberia and Japan). The single NC population was first discovered in 1842 by Asa Gray and John Carey, and not seen again until 1989. The VA population was first reported by Fleming & Ludwig (1996). The report of the species from Roan Mountain was found to be in error; see Anthriscus (Mellichamp, Matthews, & Smithka 1987, 1988).

Glossary (beta!)

Origin/Endemic status: Native

Taxonomy Comments: The specific epithet is a misnomer; the species is native to ne. North America and is not found in China. The epithet was based on confusion between 'Genesee' (New York), and 'Chinensem'.
