Taxonomic Comments
This record represents the narrow concept of Asarum caudatum following FNA (vol. 3, 1997) not including A. wagneri. Flora of North America (vol. 3, 1997) elevates Asarum caudatum var. viridiflorum to full species as A. wagneri, therefore according to FNA, Kartesz's A. caudatum var. caudatum is equivalent to A. caudatum.
