|discussion=<p>Four species that were recognized by P. A. Rydberg (1905) and Hu S. Y. (1954–1956) on the basis of hypanthium and sepal vestiture are here combined: <i>Philadelphus</i> argenteus and P. crinitus (densely lanate-sericeous-strigose, with underlying hairs more slender and coiled), <i>P. microphyllus</i> (glabrous or sparsely sericeous in four vertical lines), and <i>P. occidentalis</i> (uniformly sericeous-strigose, vestiture not completely obscuring the epidermis). The vestiture patterns are often mixed in populations, although regional patterns exist. Most plants in the northern range (northern Arizona, Colorado, southern <i>Nevada</i>, northern New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming) have sparsely sericeous-strigose adaxial leaf surfaces and a slightly denser vestiture on the abaxial surfaces; the adaxial leaf surfaces have a thin cuticle, and the leaves dry a brown color. In more arid zones (southeast Arizona, southwestern New Mexico, trans-Pecos Texas, and Baja California, Mexico), the adaxial epidermis often has a thicker, smoother cuticle or a mosaic of areas of thin and thick cuticle, and the leaves dry a gray- or olive green color.</p><!--
--><p>The taxon crinitus, first named as a subspecies of <i>Philadelphus microphyllus</i>, is based on a population from the rhyolitic Davis Mountains in trans-Pecos Texas. Plants assigned to this taxon have densely vestitured hypanthia and sepals; longer hairs on the abaxial leaf surface (to 1.2 mm), with an underlying layer of thinner, wavy hairs; and thick adaxial cuticles. They are usually distinct from adjacent <i></i>var.<i> microphyllus</i>. However, similar plants occur in the nearby limestone Guadalupe Mountains and again in southeastern Arizona (Huachuca and Santa Rita mountains) and in the intervening areas. Many from the latter region have been considered P. argenteus (with densely vestitured hypanthium and sepals, often similar leaf vestiture, and thick cuticles), but plants referable to P. argenteus occur scattered among plants of <i></i>var.<i> microphyllus</i> and do not form large uniform populations; the P. argenteus form is here considered a more strongly vestitured phase within an expanded <i></i>var.<i> microphyllus</i>, which then also includes var. crinitus.</p>
