]NL reports of Taraxacum palustre (Lyons) Symons, naturalized south of our range, refer to Taraxacum officinale; the name likely persists due to Fernald's combination, which he synonymizes with Taraxacum officinale F.H.Wigg. (Fernald 1933). The Nfld. report of Krigia dandelion by Titford & Titford (1995) is referred to Taraxacum officinale.]
