Cardamine umbellata Greene[FNA7, HC2]
Siberian bittercress, umbellate bittercress
Publication: Pittonia. 3: 154. 1897.
Origin: Native
selected vouchers: WTU
Notes: FNA7: "Recent molecular data (J. Lihová et al. 2006) indicate that Cardamine umbellata, often treated as a variety of C. oligosperma, represents a distinct lineage more closely related to taxa from New Zealand; this does not exclude C. oligosperma as one of the possible parents of this polyploid."
