|discussion=<p>Materials from eastern Utah have leaves narrower on the average than those from the Great Basin and more heavily tuberculate bracteoles. C. A. Hanson (1962) regarded intermediate materials from Wellington in Carbon County, Utah, between <i>Atriplex gardneri </i>var.<i> utahensis</i> and <i></i></i>var.<i><i> cuneata</i> as A. cuneata var. introgressa C. A. Hanson. H. C. Stutz and S. C. Sanderson (1998) attempted to reinstate the name <i>A. nuttallii</i> for a portion of the variation included herein within <i></i></i>var.<i><i> utahensis</i>, i.e., that portion with more elongate stems and clump-forming habit, morphologic features with apparently negligible taxonomic significance.</p>
