--><span class="statement" id="st-undefined" data-properties=""><b>Annuals,</b> fibrous-rooted or filiform-taprooted. <b>Stems</b> erect to ascending, straight or geniculate at nodes, simple or branched at proximal and medial nodes, 6–20(–25) cm, minutely stipitate-glandular, hairs 0.1–0.3 mm, gland-tipped. <b>Leaves</b> usually cauline, basal usually deciduous by flowering; petiole: proximals 1–3 mm, distals 0 mm; blade palmately 3–5-veined, narrowly ovate or narrowly lanceolate to elliptic or elliptic-lanceolate, largest 8–18(–30) × (1–)3–7 mm, relatively even-sized, or slightly reduced distally, base attenuate to obtuse or rounded, margins entire, mucronulate, or denticulate, apex acute to obtuse, surfaces minutely stipitate-glandular, hairs 0.1–0.3 mm, gland-tipped. <b>Flowers</b> plesiogamous, 10–20, from medial to distal nodes. <b>Fruiting</b> pedicels straight, 7–18 mm, minutely stipitate-glandular, hairs 0.1–0.3 mm, gland-tipped. <b>Fruiting</b> calyces winged, plicate-angled, maturing ovoid-ellipsoid to campanulate or broadly urceolate, distinctly inflated, 7–11 mm, margins distinctly toothed or lobed, sparsely, minutely hirtellous, eglandular, lobes pronounced, erect. <b>Corollas</b> yellow to pale yellow, sparsely red-spotted or not, bilaterally symmetric, weakly bilabiate; tube-throat cylindric, 5–8 mm, exserted 1–3 mm beyond calyx margin; limb barely widened, lobes broadly obovate, apex rounded or mucronate. <b>Styles</b> glabrous. <b>Anthers</b> included, glabrous. <b>Capsules</b> included, 5–9 mm.</span><!--

|discussion=<p>No natural occurrences of <i>Erythranthe inflatula</i> are known from Washington; the type collection from Klickitat County is from a cultivated plant.</p><!--
--><p>Morphological and molecular data (R. J. Meinke 1995; P. M. Beardsley et al. 2004) indicate that <i>Erythranthe inflatula</i> originated as a hybrid between <i>E. breviflora</i> and <i>E. latidens</i>. Its geography and biology suggest that it is reproductively stable. The putative parents are geographically and ecologically separated for most of their ranges, and the range of <i>E. inflatula</i> is considerably broader than the relatively small region where the parents are sympatric. In the region of sympatry, however, <i>E. inflatula</i> may be difficult to distinguish from one or both of its putative parents. G. L. Nesom (2012g) was not able to find morphology that would distinguish the recently described <i>Mimulus</i> evanescens from <i>E. inflatula</i>.</p>
