Prenanthes Sagittata
''Prenanthes'' is a genus of plant in the family Asteraceae, often referred to as rattlesnake root. Molecular analysis in 2009 revealed that the genus as traditionally envisioned is polyphyletic, meaning that it is a conglomeration of species not closely related to one another. All but one species will be moved to other genera, leaving only ''Prenanthes purpurea''. The species, sometimes called purple lettuce, is widespread across much of Europe and the Middle East. includes photos, drawings, and distribution maps The genus formerly included; '' [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Crepis
''Crepis'', commonly known in some parts of the world as hawksbeard or hawk's-beard (but not to be confused with the related genus ''Hieracium'' with a similar common name), is a genus of annual and perennial flowering plants of the family Asteraceae superficially resembling the dandelion, the most conspicuous difference being that ''Crepis'' usually has branching scapes with multiple heads (though solitary heads can occur). The genus name ''Crepis'' derives from the Greek ''krepis'', meaning "slipper" or "sandal", possibly in reference to the shape of the fruit.''Crepis''. Flora of North America. The genus is distributed throughout the Northern Hemisphere and |

Nabalus
''Nabalus'' is a genus of Asian and North American flowering plants in the tribe Cichorieae within the family Asteraceae. ''Nabalus'' is now considered the correct name for a group of plants in North America that were formerly considered to be members of '' Prenanthes'', and were included in that genus in the Flora of North America treatment. Common names for the genus include "rattlesnake root" and "white lettuce." The latter reflects its close relationship to lettuce (''Lactuca sativa'') but having flowers that are whitish or purplish-white in some species. Many (perhaps all) of the species are monocarpic perennials, in which an individual plant may live for multiple years in a vegetative condition but then will die after flowering and fruiting. Natural history White lettuce is firmly identified with common lettuce, ''Lactuca sativa''. ''Lactuca sativa'' has its inceptions in the Middle East.

Lactuca
''Lactuca'', commonly known as lettuce, is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. The genus includes at least 50 species, distributed worldwide, but mainly in temperate Eurasia. Its best-known representative is the garden lettuce (''Lactuca sativa''), with its many varieties. "Wild lettuce" commonly refers to the wild-growing relatives of common garden lettuce. Many species are common weeds. ''Lactuca'' species are diverse and take a wide variety of forms. They are annuals, biennials, perennials, or shrubs. Their flower heads have yellow, blue, or white ray florets. Some species are bitter-tasting. Most wild lettuces are xerophytes, adapted to dry habitat types. Some occur in more moist areas, such as the mountains of central Africa. Diversity There are different concepts of the species within ''Lactuca''. It is not clear how many distinct species are known, and estimates vary from 50 [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Hypochaeris
''Hypochaeris'' is a genus of plants in the family Asteraceae. Many species are known as cat's ear. These are annual and perennial herbs generally bearing flower heads with yellow ray florets. These plants may resemble or be confused with dandelions and so some are called false dandelions. Estimates of the number of species range from about 50 up to about 100. Most species are native to South America, but some are found in Eurasia and North Africa.
