Etymology
Arnoseris is the scientific name for a small plant also called 'lamb succory'. A helpful way to remember it is to see it as Arno- + -seris, which makes you think of a little 'series' of tiny yellow, daisy-like flowers, and that image helps explain why Arnoseris refers to a small, daisy-like flowering plant.
