Selon l'usage établi dans la nomenclature botanique, le manque d'une dénomination vulgaire peut être avantageusement comblé par l'emploi de l'appellation latine, savante. C'est la raison pour laquelle nous conseillons l'emploi de «lomatium nudicaule» comme équivalent français de «pestle parsnip». 1, record 1, French, - lomatium%20nudicaule
