Herrickia is a former North American genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, native to the western United States . In 2004 it was proposed to revive the genus with species that were included in Aster before molecular studies triggered the splitting of that genus into several distinct genera.[2] However, the status of this genus is disputed with Plants of the World Online (POWO) synonymizing it with Eurybia as of 2023.[3]
