62c. Leaves entire or serrate --78.
63a. Some of the involucral bracts leaf-like, longer than the heads
(3-20 dm. high; flowers yellow or greenish, summer and autumn)
(Beggar Ticks) --126.
63b. Bracts short and not leaf-like --64.
64a. Heads 7-20 mm. wide, in a flat-topped or convex cluster (3-10
dm. high; flowers yellow, summer) (Tansy) --65.
64b. Heads smaller, in spikes, racemes, or panicles (flowers yellow
or greenish, late summer and autumn) (Wormwood) --66.
65a. Heads 7-10 mm. wide, numerous in a dense cluster
=Tansy, Tanacetum vulgare.=
65b. Heads 10-20 mm. wide, few, 2-10 in a loose open cluster
=Tansy, Tanacetum huronense.=
66a. Heads 2-3 mm. broad (4-15 dm. high) --67.
66b. Heads 4-6 mm. broad (3-10 dm. high) --69.
67a. Leaf-lobes narrowly linear, strictly entire
=Wormwood, Artemisia caudata.=
67b. Leaf-lobes serrate --68.
68a. Heads in a loose spreading panicle
=Wormwood, Artemisia annua.=
68b. Heads in axillary clusters, producing a leafy spike-like
panicle =Wormwood, Artemisia biennis.=
69a. Leaf-lobes narrowly linear --70.
69b. Leaf-lobes oblong to obovate, not linear --71.
70a. Shrubby; involucre pubescent
=Southernwood, Artemisia abrotanum.=
70b. Herbaceous; involucre glabrous or rarely pubescent
=Wormwood, Artemisia canadensis.=
71a. Leaves finely gray-pubescent on both sides
=Wormwood, Artemisia absinthium.=
71b. Leaves smooth or nearly so above, densely white-woolly beneath
=Mugwort, Artemisia vulgaris.=
72a. Heads 2-4 cm. broad, purple, blue, or rarely white (3-6 dm.
high; summer) --92.
72b. Heads 1 cm. wide or less --73.
73a. Leaves densely white-woolly beneath (flowers yellowish, late
summer) --74.
73b. Leaves smooth or hairy, never white-woolly --75.
74a. Heads 6-8 mm. wide (4-8 dm. high)
=Wormwood, Artemisia stelleriana.=
74b. Heads 3-4 mm. wide (5-10 dm. high)
=Wormwood, Artemisia ludoviciana.=
75a. Principal bracts of the involucre 5, with frequently a few much
smaller ones --76.
75b. Principal bracts of the involucre numerous --77.
76a. Heads few in small terminal clusters; foliage somewhat
viscid-pubescent (6-15 dm. high; flowers yellow, summer)
--114a.
76b. Heads very numerous in flat-topped clusters; foliage never
viscid-pubescent (1-2 m. high; flowers white, late summer)
--105c.
