Taxonomy

Senecio leucanthemifolius was first described by Jean Louis Marie Poiret in 1789. As of April 2024, the circumscription of the species varied. Euro+Med Plantbase took a wide view, whereas Plants of the World Online (PoWO) split it into a number of species. For example, Euro+Med Plantbase considered Senecio crassifolius Willd. to be a synonym, while Plants of the World Online (PoWO) accepted it as a separate species.

Subspecies

As of April 2024, the accepted subspecies varied along with the circumscription of the species. Euro+Med Plantbase accepted five:

  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. caucasicus (DC.) Greuter (also accepted by PoWO)

  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. leucanthemifolius
  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. mauritanicus (Pomel) Greuter(=Senecio fradinii Pomel in PoWO)
  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. vernalis (Waldst. & Kit.) Greuter (=Senecio vernalis Waldst. & Kit. in PoWO)

Plants of the World Online accepted two further subspecies:

  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. cossyrensis (Lojac.) C.Brullo & Brullo
