| Genus | Pilosella (hawkweed) | ||
Until recently, plants in the genus Pilosella were grouped as a subgenus of Hieracium. Distinct features of the cypsela, absence of hybridization between groups, and, in some species, the presence of runners (stolons) and/or red lines on the lower (abaxial) ligule surface, support the segregation of these species into a separate genus. |
