|discussion=<p>Variety deflexum is widespread and variable, found mainly in the Mojave and Sonoran deserts of southeastern California, southern <i>Nevada</i>, Arizona, and New Mexico, southward into northern Baja California Norte and northwestern Sonora, Mexico. Plants in southern Arizona tend to have slightly longer peduncles (3–5 mm) and involucres (2–2.5 mm) than do those to the north and west (peduncles 0.1–3 mm, involucres 1.5–2 mm); the former have been recognized as var. turbinatum. Variety deflexum occurs also in the colder Great Basin desert in southwestern Utah, where a sharp distinction between it and <i></i>var.<i> nevadense</i> is not always possible.</p>
