Coreopsideae

Hairy beggarticks Bidens pilosa, copyright Prenn.

Belongs within: Asteroideae.

The Coreopsideae are a group of composite plants in which the disk-achenes are more or less dorsally compressed and the receptacular scales are flattish (Black & Robertson 1965). Members include the genus Bidens, beggarticks, whose species typically bear bristly and barbed fruits adapted for dispersal by sticking to animal fur or feathers (and clothing).

Characters (from Black & Robertson 1965, as Coreopsidinae): Heads bisexual, heterogamous-radiate; receptacle with chaffy, flattish scales; corolla present in both sexes; anthers united, obtuse at base; style-branches flattish, not truncate; disk-achenes more or less dorsally compressed.
