FNA points out that Arnoglossum muehlenbergii (long known as Cacalia muehlebergii) is a superfluous name. Apparently, the older epithet reniformis was preoccupied under Cacalia, but is available under Arnoglossum.
Habitat
Floodplain forests, stream banks and riverbanks, and rocky flood-scoured bars at lower elevations; cove forests, rich oak-hickory forests, northern hardwood forests, and clearings at middle to high elevations. Widely scattered but rare in the mountains.
