| Note that the outer involucral bracts on the bud are at right angles, a characteristic of southern dandelions. |
| In addition to flowers, intense signals were also obtained in young involucral bracts. |
| The lateral nerves of the involucral leaves are sometimes very faint, and disappear in drying, while the median nerve becomes more prominent. |
| Involucral scales few, equal, in a single row, not scarious. |
