Discussion
Often treated as a variety of Peritoma lutea, P. jonesii grows at lower elevations, has a more southerly (though overlapping) range (T. H. Kearney and R. H. Peebles 1960), and differs in morphological features. Most notable are its larger, showier flowers and longer capsules.
Selected References
None.
