Taxonomy

Cardamine dissecta was first described as Dentaria dissecta by the American botanist Melines Conklin Leavenworth in 1824.[4] The American botanist Ihsan Ali Al-Shehbaz placed Dentaria dissecta Leavenw. in genus Cardamine in 1988.[2] The name Cardamine dissecta (Leavenw.) Al-Shehbaz is widely used today.[3][5]

Cardamine dissecta is a member of the Cardamine concatenata alliance, a monophyletic group of eastern North American species that includes Cardamine angustata, Cardamine concatenata, Cardamine diphylla, Cardamine dissecta, Cardamine incisa, and Cardamine maxima.[6] All members of the alliance were previously placed in genus Dentaria Tourn. ex L., which is now considered to be a synonym for Cardamine L.[7]
