Subordinate Taxa |

Two varieties have been recognized. Both occur in Minnesota. The western variety, var. arkansana, has leaflets that are hairless on the underside. The eastern variety, var. suffulta, has leaflets that are hairy on the underside, at least along the veins. According to Steyermark’s Flora of Missouri (Yatskievych), there is a “total intergradation between glabrous and hairy plants.” For this reason, some taxonomists do not recognize the varieties. |
