List of Cirsium species

Last updated

The following species in the flowering plant genus Cirsium , the plume thistles, are accepted by Plants of the World Online. [1] A 2022 molecular study reassigned many species to other genera, but Cirsium remains a speciose genus. [2] Already as a result of the genetic study Ackerfield et al. 2020, Cirsium and Carduus were determined to be polyphyletic in their current circumscriptions, suggesting to either "consolidate all taxa into one large genus (Carduus or Cirsium)," or "recognize each major clade as a genus (Carduus, Cirsium, Eriolepis , Notobasis , Picnomon , Silybum , and Tyrimnus )". [3] Bureš et al. 2023 examined ploidy, genome length, morphological similarity and other lines of evidence, reaching a similar conclusion; whereas the former study referred to a broader range of genera by the term "Carduus–Cirsium group", the latter was published on the heels of the separation of Lophiolepis and Epitrachys from Cirsium, so the focused shifted to their surprising result of Carduus and Tirymnus being nested within Cirsium. [4] Since further genetic evidence is needed to resolve the intergeneric relationships of the Carduinae, this list will be restricted to species in the current genus Cirsium.

<i>Cirsium</i> Genus of flowering plants in the daisy family Asteraceae

Cirsium is a genus of perennial and biennial flowering plants in the Asteraceae, one of several genera known commonly as thistles. They are more precisely known as plume thistles. These differ from other thistle genera in having a seed with a pappus of feathered hairs on their achenes. The other genera have a pappus of simple unbranched hairs.

<i>Carduus</i> Genus of flowering plants in the daisy family

Carduus is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, and the tribe Cardueae, one of two genera considered to be true thistles, the other being Cirsium. Plants of the genus are known commonly as plumeless thistles. They are native to temperate Eurasia and North Africa, and several are known elsewhere as introduced species. This genus is noted for its disproportionately high number of noxious weeds compared to other flowering plant genera.

<i>Anaphalis</i> Genus of flowering plants

Anaphalis is a genus of herbaceous and woody flowering plants within the family Asteraceae, whose members are commonly known by the name pearl or pearly everlasting. There are around 110 species with the vast majority being native to central and southern Asia. There is one species native to North America that is fairly well known and popular in cultivation, namely the western pearly everlasting.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Astereae</span> Tribe of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae

Astereae is a tribe of plants in the family Asteraceae that includes annuals, biennials, perennials, subshrubs, shrubs, and trees. They are found primarily in temperate regions of the world. Plants within the tribe are present nearly worldwide divided into over 250 genera and more than 3,100 species, making it the second-largest tribe in the family behind Senecioneae.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Anthemideae</span> Tribe of flowering plants in Asteraceae family

Anthemideae is a tribe of flowering plants in the family, Asteraceae, and the subfamily Asteroideae. They are distributed worldwide with concentrations in central Asia, the Mediterranean Basin, and southern Africa. Most species of plant known as chamomile belong to genera of this tribe.

<i>Pseudognaphalium</i> Genus of plants

Pseudognaphalium is a genus of flowering plants in the sunflower family. Members of the genus are commonly known as cudweeds or rabbit tobacco. They are widespread in tropical and temperate regions of many countries.

<i>Ajania</i> Genus of flowering plants

Ajania is a genus of flowering plants in the daisy family, described as a genus in 1955. The genus is native to temperate Asia, primarily Russia and China. It is named after the Russian port city Ayan in the Khabarovsk Krai region of the Russian Far East, on the coast of the Sea of Okhotsk.

<i>Leibnitzia</i> Genus of flowering plants

Leibnitzia (sunbonnets) is a genus of Asian and North American flowering plants in the family Asteraceae.
