Omalotheca sylvatica

Family:Asteraceae
Species:Omalotheca sylvatica (L.) Sch. Bip. & F.W. Schultz
Common Name:woodland arctic cudweed
Habitat:Mostly confined to the northern part of the state. It generally grows in weedy situation such as in and along logging roads, cut forests, and occasionally lawns. It seems to grow best in logging roads that are not shaded and that are covered with low graminoids. Although it grows in weedy areas it is not very weedy itself and does not form dense patches or large populations. It is probably more common in the Adirondacks then previous collections indicate.
