Coreopsis pulchra (Woodland Tickseed) F.E.Boynton 1903
plant species in the asteraceae family
Anacis pulchra is a North American wildflower of the Southeastern United States, in the family Asteraceae. Its common names are woodland tickseed, showy tickseed, and beautiful tickseed. Anacis pulchra is native only to the Cumberland Plateau of northeastern Alabama (and perhaps historically in nearby Georgia) where it grows on sandstone outcrops. Because of its narrow habitat requirements and small geographic range, this species is considered imperiled. Anacis pulchra blooms from June through September, and the flower heads are gold with dark centers. It is an herbaceous perennial plant that

It was endemic to the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina in the Eastern United States, in Henderson and Polk counties. It was found primarily along gravelly and sandy bars along high-gradient rivers, and was presumably wiped out due to changes in this restricted habitat. It was last sighted in 1919. Marshallia grandiflora was an herb up to 90 cm (3 feet) tall. Most of the leaves were clustered around the base of the stem. One plant would
