Subordinate Taxa

 
 

prairie rose (Rosa arkansana var. arkansana)

prairie rose (Rosa arkansana var. suffulta)

 
       
 

Two varieties have been recognized. Both occur in Minnesota. The western variety arkansana has leaflets that are hairless on the underside. The eastern variety 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 sources do not recognize the varieties.

While hunting on Prairie Rose
this White Crab Spider turned up it's nose,
so to speak,
and walked away from the Carrion Beetle.
I guess it pays to stink a little.
