Reports of
Rumex verticillatus for New Mexico (W. C. Martin and C. R. Hutchins 1980) need confirmation. The species was reported erroneously from Colorado (S. L. O'Kane et al. 1988) as a result of misidentification of
R. fueginus (see W. A. Weber and R. C. Wittmann 1992).
I have not seen specimens of Rumex verticillatus from Delaware, Maine, New Hampshire, and New Jersey, but the species probably occurs in those states.
The following two species are closely related to Rumex verticillatus and sometimes treated as subspecies of it.

Leaf blades with lateral veins forming angle of 45-60° with midvein, linear-lanceolate or lanceolate, 5-30(-40) × 1-5 cm, usually 5-7(-10) times as long as wide, normally rather thin or at most subcoriaceous, base narrowly cuneate, margins entire, flat or slightly undulate, apex acute or acuminate. Inflorescences terminal and axillary, terminal usually occupying distal 1/ 1/ 2 of stem, usually lax, interrupted at least in basal 2, narrowly paniculate. Pedicels articulated in proximal part, distinctly thickened distally, 10-17 mm, (2.5-)3-5 times as long as inner tepals, articulation distinctly or slightly swollen. Flowers 10-15(-25) in remote whorls; inner tepals ovate-triangular or ovate-deltoid, 3.5-5 × 2.5-4 mm, longer than wide or, very rarely, as long as wide, base truncate or rounded, margins entire or, rarely, very indistinctly erose, apex acute or subacute (then with broadly triangular-lingulate tip); tubercles 3, equal or subequal, minutely punctate and/or transversely rugose (wrinkled) in proximal part.

wikipedia EN tarafından sağlandı
Rumex verticillatus, also known as swamp dock, is a species of perennial flowering plant in the family Polygonaceae. Rumex verticillatus is native to, and almost entirely found in, the eastern half of North America. It is common to find this plant in edges of vernal pools and streams in woodlands, swamps, soggy islands in partially shaded areas, marshes, and roadside ditches.[1]
Description
Swamp dock is a perennial plant about 1–1.5 m (3–5 ft) tall with a central stem usually green in color. The leaves of the plant are alternate and about 6 cm (2.5 in) in width and 30 cm (12 in) long. The petioles of the plant become gradually shorter in length from the bottom leaves to the top leaves.[1] The flowers of this plant have green tepals surrounding six stamens, yellow or white, in the center. The flowers have a droopy appearance and extend toward the base of the plant. The blooming period of swamp dock is usually in the summer and is short period of two weeks. The root system is a taproot and this plant is anemophilous.
Distribution
Swamp dock is found in North America, in Illinois, Iowa, Florida, Georgia and other eastern North American states. The habitat of swamp dock is the edges of vernal pools and streams in woodlands, swamps, soggy islands in partially shaded areas, marshes, and roadside ditches.[1]
