Crepis sibirica is an Asian and eastern European species of plant in the tribe Cichorieae within the family Asteraceae. It has been found in China (Heilongjiang, Liaoning, Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang), Mongolia, Russia, Central Asia, and eastern Europe.[2]

Crepis sibirica is a perennial herb up to 150 cm (5 feet) tall, spreading by means of large underground rhizomes. It produces a flat-topped array of several flower heads. Each head has many yellow ray florets but no disc florets. The species grows on mountain slopes and in forests and grasslands.[2]
