I'm glad you appreciate those scientific names. It's too easy to confuse plants by common names alone -- and the mistake could be a real problem. I hope you are foraging some snow! My mom in Arkansas used their snow, earlier this week, like shaved ice for some cranberry margaritas! Snow ice cream is pretty good, too. You'll have dandelions and other weeds soon enough, I guess. It's nice that your mom uses dandelions. They are good in a lot of different ways!
