These are annual and perennial herbs bearing daisy-like flower heads with yellow disc florets and usually yellow ray florets. Some species formerly classified in this genus are now included in other genera: ''Heterotheca'', '' Pityopsis'', '' Stenotus'', '' Ionactis'', ''Aster'', '' Eucephalus'', ''Erigeron'', '' Machaeranthera'', '' Croptilon'', ''Xanthisma'', '' Oclemena'', '' Bradburia'', ''Oxypappus'', ''Arnica'', and '' Helichrysopsis''.

Description, biology These are annual and perennial herbs bearing daisy-like flower heads with yellow disc florets and usually yellow ray florets, associated with mesic to xeric habitats across North America. Several species now included in ''Heterotheca'' were previously classified in the genus '' Chrysopsis'' ''Heterotheca'' species are often used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including '' Schinia lynx'', ''Schinia nubila'' and '' Schinia saturata'' (all of which have been recorded on ''Heterotheca subaxillaris'').
