|discussion=<p>Subspecies fastigiata is known from the San Gabriel, San Bernardino, and San Jacinto mountains, and from Mount Palomar. It is distinguished by its undulate leaf margins, heads not subtended by large peduncle bracts, and usually low number of ray florets. Two varieties have been recognized on the basis of the density of leaf hairs and glands. In <i></i>var.<i> fastigiata</i>, the leaves appear silvery white because of the densely short-strigoso-canescent indument of tightly appressed, short hairs obscuring underlying glands; it occurs in the San Gabriel, San Bernardino, and Santa Monica mountains. In var. sanjacintensis, the leaves are sparsely to moderately hispido-strigose and are more densely stipitate-glandular, giving them a light green appearance; it is known from the San Jacinto Mountains and Mount Palomar, and is of conservation concern. Hybridization with <i></i>subsp.<i> echioides</i> occurs at lower elevations throughout the range.</p>
