Taraxacum erythrospermum, known by the common name red-seeded dandelion, is a species of dandelion introduced to much of North America,[1] but most commonly found in the north.[2] It is often considered as a variety of Taraxacum laevigatum (i.e., Taraxacum laevigatum var. erythrospermum).[3] In many characteristics, it is similar to the common dandelion, Taraxacum officinale.
