Haploësthes alternate spelling

Haploesthes is a North American genus of flowering plants in the daisy family. It grows in Mexico and in the southwestern United States. They are perennial herbs or subshrubs with yellow flower heads.[2][3][4][5]

The name is sometimes spelled Haploësthes, with two dots over the first e to indicate that the o and the e are to be pronounced in separate syllables. This is optional; either spelling is equally acceptable.[6]
