--><p>Subspecies hydrophila is generally recognized by its few-flowered, compact, terminal, headlike spikes in branched inflorescences; its long bristles on the proximal stems; and its high wet mountain-meadow habitat. It intergrades somewhat with <i></i>subsp.<i> spicata</i>. Similar plants, possibly referable to <i></i>subsp.<i> hydrophila</i>, have been found near Spooner Lake in Douglas County, <i>Nevada</i>. Subspecies valida also has compact spicate inflorescences, but it can be distinguished by its longer spikes, greater flower number, thicker stems with stellate hairs, and marshy habitat at lower elevations. Subspecies hydrophila occurs in the high and inner North Coast Ranges in Colusa, Glenn, Lake, Mendocino, and Napa counties, California, and possibly in Douglas County, <i>Nevada</i>.</p>
