Discussion
In Kentucky, Cnidoscolus stimulosus is occasionally naturalized along railroads. Although closely related to C. urens (Linnaeus) Arthur of Mexico, Central America, and South America, C. stimulosus differs in habit, leaf pubescence, and seed shape, and the two are treated here as distinct species.
Selected References
None.
