|discussion=<p><i>Crocanthemum rosmarinifolium</i> is easily distinguished from sympatric species by its slender leaves, relatively small petaliferous flowers, occasional basal leaves, and overall pale color. As noted by R. M. Harper over a century ago, it seems not to occupy natural habitats and is found primarily on roadsides. Populations in the Dominican Republic occur up to at least 2200 m.</p>
