Acronema hookeri (C. B. Cl.) H. Wolff

This widespread, quite variable species often grows in mixed populations with Acronema graminifolium, which some authors consider to be a variety of A. hookeri (as originally described as Pimpinella hookeri var. graminifolia).

Basal petioles 4–8 cm, sheaths narrow; blade ovate-triangular to long-ovate-triangular, 2-pinnate; proximal pinnae short-petiolulate; ultimate segments ovate, obliquely ovate to broad-ovate, 1–2 × 7–13 mm, 3-lobed or irregularly sparsely serrulate. Umbels 2–5 cm across, many in a lax, raceme-like inflorescence; peduncles 4.5–8 cm; bracts and bracteoles absent; rays 3–6, 2.5–6 cm, slightly unequal; umbellules 8–15 mm across, 3–7-flowered; pedicels 5–15 mm, slender; rays and pedicels elongating and spreading in fruit.
