Taxonomic Comments
Kartesz (1999) does not recognize distinct varieties of Cirsium scariosum. Kartesz (1994) did distinguish var. scariosum and var. thorneae. Both Kartesz 1994 and 1999 recognize C. loncholepis as a distinct species while Flora of North America (2006) includes it in C. scariosum var. citrinum.
