--><span class="statement" id="st-undefined" data-properties="">Perennials; (rhizomatous); usually glabrous basally, rarely sparsely pubescent, glabrous (and sometimes glaucous) distally. <b>Stems</b> erect or ascending, unbranched or branched (few) distally, (1.5–)3–7(–11) dm, glabrous distally. <b>Basal</b> leaves (soon withered); not rosulate; petiole (proximally) (0.5–)1–3 cm; blade similar to proximal cauline, 1.5–6 cm, margins entire, pinnatifid or pinnatisect; lateral lobes oblong to linear, 0.5–2.5 cm × 0.3–1(–2) mm, margins entire. <b>Cauline</b> leaves sessile or shortly petiolate; blade usually filiform to linear, rarely oblanceolate, 1–2.5–9(–12) cm × 1–3.5(–5) mm (smaller distally, base attenuate or cuneate), margins usually entire, rarely dentate or pinnately lobed. <b>Fruiting</b> pedicels divaricate to ascending, slender, narrower than fruit, (3–)5–9(–11) mm. <b>Flowers</b>: sepals ascending, oblong to oblong-linear, (3–)4–7 × (0.8–)12 mm; petals spatulate, (6–)8–12 × (1.5–)2–4 mm, claw 2–5 mm; filaments (yellowish), (4–)5–7 mm; anthers linear, 1.5–2.5mm. <b>Fruits</b> (divaricate to erect), narrowly linear, smooth, slender, (2.5–)3.5–6.5 cm × 0.9–1.2 mm; valves glabrous; ovules 60–94 per ovary; style 0.5–1 mm; stigma prominently 2-lobed. <b>Seeds</b> 1–2 × 0.4–0.6 mm. <b>2n</b> = 14.</span><!--

|discussion=<p>N. H. Holmgren (2005b) recognized <i>Sisymbrium linifolium</i> and others (see 86. <i>Hesperidanthus</i>) in Schoenocrambe even though the molecular evidence (S. I. Warwick et al. 2002) overwhelmingly shows that the latter is nested within <i>Sisymbrium</i>, whereas the species of <i>Hesperidanthus</i> are not closely related. Indeed, I. A. Al-Shehbaz et al. (2006) placed <i>Hesperidanthus</i> and <i>Sisymbrium</i> in different tribes. This is an example where the superficial resemblances in fruit morphology are the result of convergence and can easily mislead to erroneous taxonomy.</p>
