Voss placed his form classifications of A. hirsuticaulis and A. bifrons under A. diffusus var. thyrsoideus. He stated that these forms "sind nur Ìppige, an schattigen und feuchten Orten stehende, lockerer gebaute, höhere Pflanzen", in English, "are just luxurious plants growing at shady and moist places, less branched and taller". That same year, Pennsylvania botanist Thomas Conrad Porter demoted A. hirsuticaulis to a variety of Britton's A. lateriflorus, which took precedence. After Nesom reclassified the varieties from genus Aster to Symphyotrichum,:?285? these became taxonomic synonyms of the new Symphyotrichum lateriflorum var. hirsuticaule.

Miller, in the Physick Garden at Chelsea, though no reference is made to them in Gardener's Dictionary.":?x? Nuttall demoted Aster pendulus to a variety of A. divergens in 1818.:?159? In 1833, American botanist Lewis Caleb Beck created A. miser var. pendulus from A. pendulus Aiton. His short description states that the leaves of the branches are "rather remote".:?186?
