Discussion

R. C. Rollins (1941, 1993) recognized both pycnocarpa and adpressipilis as distinct varieties of Arabis hirsuta; G. A. Mulligan (1996) treated adpressipilis as a synonym of A. hirsuta var. pycnocarpa. In my opinion, the differences in trichome morphology of the stems and leaves are significant enough to justify recognition of infraspecific taxa of one species.
