形態特徵

• Stems 10–35 cm tall, simple or branched, base densely pilose, hairs long spreading.
• Radical leaves spatulate, obtuse; petiole long, winged; lower cauline leaves spatulate, 5–13×1–2 cm, apex obtuse, mucronulate, base narrowed into winged petiole, margins mucronulate-serrate, pilose and glandular on both surfaces; cauline leaves gradually smaller upward, median ones linear-oblong, 5–10 ×1–1.5 cm, obtuse, sessile; upper leaves lanceolate, acute.
• Heads 1–16; peduncle 4–70 mm long, densely tomentose. Involucre broadly tubular, 6–9×12–15 mm, with a few basal bracteoles, bracts in 3 series, lanceolate, obtuse, purple, bracts with black scabrous hair on midrib, ca. 2 mm, scales sometimes absent; corolla yellow, 8.5–9.5 mm long.
• Achenes cylindric, 2.5×0.8 mm, 10-ribbed. Pappus 3.5–5.5 mm long, brown, bristles unequal, a few short and many long.
• Based mainly on variation in pappus length and habit, Kitamura (1942) published a second species, <i>H. pinanense</i>, which was recognized in first edition of the Flora of Taiwan. A careful examination of numerous specimens collected from Taiwan revealed that those characters vary continuously. Mori (1937) published <i>H. morii</i> var. <i>tsugitakaensis</i>, characterized by its dwarf habit. This taxon is no more than an alpine form of <i>H. morii</i>. In our opinion, only one variable species exists in Taiwan.
