|discussion=<p><i>Boechera saximontana</i> is an apomictic taxon that has been treated as a variety of either <i>Arabis</i> microphylla (R. C. Rollins 1941) or A. (<i>Boechera</i>) williamsii (Rollins 1993; R. D. Dorn 2001). It is easily distinguished from typical collections of those species (see M. D. Windham and I. A. Al-Shehbaz 2007b for detailed comparison), but it is likely that one (or both) were involved in its hybrid origin. It is known from Blaine, Custer, and Lemhi counties in Idaho, and Big Horn and Fremont counties in Wyoming.</p>
