|discussion=<p><i>Hypericum canariense</i> is established at Montecito and Santa Barbara in the hills (P. A. Munz 1974) and along the coast north of Santa Cruz to San Francisco, at locations in Orange and San Mateo counties, and in the San Diego coast region.</p><!--
--><p>The description above agrees with that for <i>Hypericum</i> floribundum regarding sepals lanceolate and acute; in typical <i>H. canariense</i> they are oblong-spatulate and rounded. The variation is continuous; only one species is recognized here.</p>
