|discussion=<p><i>Hesperolinon drymarioides</i> is known from only 20 populations scattered along the eastern slopes of the Inner North Coast Ranges of Colusa, Lake, and Napa counties. It is the most distinctive species in the genus. The persistent, ovate to orbiculate leaves arranged in well-spaced whorls, separated by long internodes, to the top of the main axis, with margins outlined by rows of tiny, stipitate glands, set it apart from all other species. The species is also unusual in often producing one or two long, decumbent, cyme-producing branches at the base of the main stem (H. K. Sharsmith 1961).</p>
