Agoseris monticola Greene

Agoseris monticola occurs mainly in the Sierra Nevada and sporadically eastward in the Great Basin (Jarbridge and Ruby Mountains) and northward to the Cascade Range and Blue Mountains of Oregon. It appears to be allied with A. glauca and has been treated as a variety of the latter. Ecologically, it approaches A. glauca var. dasycephala; the two are morphologically and geographically separate from each other. Intermediates between A. monticola and A. aurantiaca, A. glauca, and A. parviflora are known.

Stems 0. Leaves mostly decumbent to prostrate; petioles rarely purplish, margins not ciliate; blades oblanceolate to spatulate, 2–10(–14) cm, margins usually dentate to lobed or laciniately pinnatifid, rarely entire, lobes 2–3 pairs, linear to oblanceolate, proximal lobes often retrorse, distal often antrorse, lobules often present, faces mostly puberulent to villous, sometimes glabrous and glaucous. Peduncles not elongating after flowering, 2–25 cm in fruit, basally lanate, apically stipitate-glandular. Involucres obconic to campanulate, 1–2 cm in fruit. Phyllaries in 2–4(–6) series, usually rosy purple, rarely green, sometimes spotted, often with a purple-black midstripes, unequal, faces ± hairy, stipitate-glandular; outer usually erect, sometimes spreading apically, adaxially glabrous; inner erect, not elongating after flowering. Receptacles epaleate, rarely paleate (outer florets only). Florets 10–40; corollas yellow, tubes 4–10 mm, ligules 5–11 × 2–4 mm; anthers 3–5 mm. Cypselae 6–10 mm; bodies fusiform, 6–9 mm, beaks 1–3 mm, lengths to ¹/2 times bodies; ribs ridged to flattened, straight; pappus bristles in 2 series, 8–11 mm. 2n = 18, 36.

Agoseris monticola is a North American species of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae known by the common name Sierra Nevada agoseris or Sierra Nevada mountain dandelion. It grows in the mountains of the western United States, primarily the Cascade Range and Sierra Nevada, but also on other mountains in Nevada and Idaho.
