|discussion=<p><i>Arabis nuttallii</i>, the second most widespread native North American species of the genus, is variable in density of indumentum, types of trichomes, plant height, pedicel length, fruit width, leaf shape, flowering and fruiting time, and elevation. As indicated by R. C. Rollins (1941, 1993), the variation seems to be sporadic and does not correlate with clear-cut entities and, therefore, the species cannot be subdivided meaningfully.</p>
