Taraxacum albidum is a species of dandelion that grows in eastern Eurasia.[1] A member of the Asteraceae, it is a perennial herbaceous plant native to southern Japan.
It is sometimes mistaken for Taraxacum coreanum, but T. coreanum grows wild chiefly in the Korean Peninsula and some parts of China. Taraxacum albidum is a hybrid between T. coreanum and Taraxacum japonicum (Tatsuyoshi Morita, Moleculer phylodenetic analysis of polyoloid complex of East Asian Taraxacum [sic], 1996-1997).[2]
