Gentianopsis virgata, commonly known as lesser fringed gentian, narrow-leaved fringed gentian, or smaller fringed gentian, is a biennial herbaceous species of plant, native to eastern USA and eastern Canada.^[3]

Taxonomy

Broadly transcribed, Gentianopsis crinita (Froel.) Ma is an eastern North American species complex, containing a group of closely related taxa, including G. virgata. Further species were described in the past, but a lack of difference in nrDNA and morphology does not support their recognition.^[4] Three subspecies are currently recognized:^[5]
