Gentianopsis virgata, commonly known as lesser fringed gentian, narrow-leaved fringed gentian, or smaller fringed gentian, is a biennial herbaceous species of plant, native to eastern USA and eastern Canada.[1]
Taxonomy
Broadly transcribed, Gentianopsis crinita (Froel.) Ma is an eastern North American species complex, containing a group of closely related taxa, including G. virgata. Further species were described in the past, but a lack of difference in nrDNA and morphology does not support their recognition.[2] Three subspecies are currently recognized:[3]
- Gentianopsis virgata (Raf.) Holub subsp. virgata
- Gentianopsis virgata subsp. victorinii (Fernald) Lammers
- Gentianopsis virgata subsp. macounii (Holm) J.S. Pringle
