Taraxacum aristum (Asteraceae) not in the Student's Flora  
Taraxacum aristum is rare native rosette herb found in subalpine-alpine grassland habitats. It is very similar to the widespread weed Dandelion (T. officinale) but differs in having outer phyllaries appressed to the inner ones, and in the leaves which have only shallow, but regularly arranged teeth.
