Discussion

Species 4 (1 in the flora).

Gambelia is defined by its shrubby habit, whorled (rarely opposite) leaves, and red corollas. Generic delimitation has varied considerably with species placed in Gambelia (D. A. Sutton 1988; E. Fischer 2004) and Saccularia Kellogg (W. Rothmaler 1943) or combined with South American species in Galvezia Dombey ex Jussieu (P. A. Munz 1926). Most authors recognize Gambelia as exclusively North American and Galvezia as comprising species in South America and the Galapagos Islands (Sutton; Fischer). Gambelia speciosa was included in molecular phylogenetic analyses of Antirrhineae by M. Ghebrehiwet et al. (2000) and M. Fernández-Mazuecos et al. (2013). The latter investigation demonstrated strong support for recognition of a North American Gambelia nested in an Antirrhinum clade distinct from South American species of Galvezia nested within a Galvezia clade. The extent of isozyme, morphological, and molecular divergence (Sutton; W. J. Elisens and A. D. Nelson 1993; Ghebrehiwet et al.) among species in this clade is consistent with recognition of Gambelia for North American species and Galvezia for South American species.
