|discussion=<p><i>Diplacus pictus</i> is known from Kern and Tulare counties in the Sierra <i>Nevada</i> foothills and Tehachapi Mountains.</p><!--
--><p><i>Diplacus pictus</i> and <i>D. mohavensis</i> have been treated together as <i>Mimulus</i> sect. Mimulastrum; molecular data (P. M. Beardsley et al. 2004) indicate that the two species are independently derived and that the similarities in corolla morphology are convergent. <i>Diplacus pictus</i> produces cleistogamous flowers in drought conditions.</p>
