W side of Marengo halfway between Fillmore and Pico (just south of Heide). This is a new one, the other ones are on S side of Fillmore just west of Euclid. Apparently also called L. taraxacoides incorrectly. FNA lists L. nudicaulis taraxacoides as a synonym. Verified:
| PAP | outer fls just a low crown of scales, inner fls plumose bristles with some shorter subplumose or nonplumose bristles mixed in (possibly just not fully developed), v little beak |
Same as 20070816. Beautiful new growth.
