This northeastern species has been collected at two sites on Pine Mt., here at the southern edge of its range: in PIKE (US), E.L. Braun #2048, 26 Sep 1938, steep slopes, woods, near Millard; and LETC (MDKY), A. Risk #2013, 11 Aug 1988, Elkins Br., non-forested wetland near head of stream, wet clay soil, elev. 2510 ft. These colls. may be somewhat atypical, and need further comparison with associated species of Solidago that might hybridize or be confused. Braun's coll. was made at the same locality as her colls. of faucibus (#2049-2050), and patula is also known on Pine Mt. Both those species have large basally disposed leaves, resembling squarrosa. Older records of squarrosa from the state are erroneous (P's coll. at MO is erecta) or probably so (Short & Peter 1835).
