--><span class="statement" id="st-undefined" data-properties=""><b>Annuals,</b> fibrous-rooted, usually dark purplish. <b>Stems</b> erect, simple, weakly 4-angled, 4–16(–24) cm, slender, glabrous or sparsely villous-glandular near nodes. <b>Leaves</b> basal and cauline, basal usually persistent, largest at mid stem or above, cauline relatively few on long internodes; petiole: proximals to distals 1–4 mm; blade palmately 3-veined, ovate to ovate-lanceolate, 5–16(–20) × 3–11 mm, base truncate to subcordate, margins shallowly, evenly crenulate to serrate-dentate or denticulate, apex acute to obtuse, surfaces: proximals glabrous or sparsely villous, distals and bracteals sparsely hirtellous or glabrous abaxially or along distal margin, sparsely villous adaxially, hairs vitreous, flattened, eglandular. <b>Flowers</b> plesiogamous, (1–)4–7, usually from all nodes, usually beginning about mid stem, cleistogamous. <b>Fruiting</b> pedicels deflexed 45–90º at calyx, 6–19 mm, longer than subtending leaves, glabrous or sparsely villous-glandular. <b>Fruiting</b> calyces sometimes purple-dotted, broadly elliptic-ovoid, inflated, sagittally compressed, 10–13 mm, minutely hirtellous, sometimes also sparsely glandular, throat closing, adaxial lobe not distinctly longer than abaxial, not falcate. <b>Corollas</b> yellow, sparsely red-dotted, bilaterally or nearly radially symmetric, bilabiate or nearly regular; tube-throat narrowly cylindric, 4–6 mm, exserted 0.5–1 mm beyond calyx margin; limb barely expanded. <b>Styles</b> glabrous. <b>Anthers</b> included, glabrous. <b>Capsules</b> included, stipitate, 6–8 mm.</span><!--

|discussion=<p><i>Erythranthe charlestonensis</i> is characterized by its annual duration, autogamous reproduction, small stature, commonly purplish color, regularly ovate, short-petiolate leaves with shallowly crenate margins and (distal leaves) sparsely villous or glabrous adaxial surfaces, hirtellous calyces without a prominently longer adaxial lobe, and lack of glandular hairs. It is endemic to the Charleston (Spring) Mountains of Clark County, <i>Nevada</i>, and one locality (Union Pass) in Mohave County, Arizona.</p>
