| Fabaceae | Acmispon americanus | Western Prairie-trefoil | Prairies, glades, bluff-tops, roadsides; eastwards a waif, as near wool waste-combing mills, other disturbed areas. | Manitoba and Saskatchewan south to w. Louisiana and c. Texas; also British Columbia south to s. California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Mexico. |  (c) Campos, Aidan |
| Fabaceae | Acmispon helleri | Carolina Prairie-trefoil | Dry woodlands and openings, originally probably limited to prairie-like sites (fire-maintained, post oak-blackjack oak savannas), generally on clayey soils, now primarily seen on roadbanks, along railroads, and in powerline rights-of-way, where mowing and bush-hogging have replaced fire as the force keeping the habitat open, sunny, and suitable for this plant of prairie affinities. | A. helleri is endemic to the Piedmont of extreme sc. Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and ne. Georgia. |  (c) Sorrie, Bruce A. - CC-BY |
