There was no problem till *Matricaria matricarioides* (Less.) Porter ex Britton and *Matricaria discoidea* DC. were considered as synonyms, but now it seems two are treated distinct by both GRIN and The Plant List. It would thus worthwhile to find out differences between two taxa, so that we can place our specimens precisely. May be any researcher will help.
