Coreopsis pubescens, commonly called the star tickseed or common hairy coreopsis, is a perennial, herbaceous, flowering plant in the Asteraceae family. It is found primarily in the central and southeastern United States. There are also reports of disjunct populations in New England and in northern Indiana, probably escapees from cultivation.
