Plants prostrate to erect, diffusely branched, 0.5–5 dm; young branches sparsely glandular. Leaves ascending, densely imbricate; blade linear, 4–15 × 1–1.5(–2) mm, margins entire or glandular-serrulate, surfaces usually glabrous. Inflorescences corymbiform, 1–14-flowered. Pedicels 5–25 mm, glandular; bracteoles 2. Flowers usually erect; sepals broadly ovate, 2–3 mm, margins ciliate, abaxial surface glabrous; corolla pink, campanulate, not constricted at mouth, 5–8 mm, not glandular, lobes spreading, 1.5–2.5 mm; stamens 10, included; filaments 1.5–3 mm, glabrous; anthers 1.5–2.5 mm; ovary broadly ovoid, 1.5–2 mm, glandular; style exserted, 5–7 mm. Capsules 5-valved, globose, 3–4 mm, glandular.
Phenology: Flowering Jul–Aug.
Habitat: Moist subalpine and alpine slopes

Alta., B.C., N.W.T., Yukon, Ariz., Calif., Idaho, Mont., Oreg., Wash., Wyo.
Discussion
Hybrids between Phyllodoce empetriformis and P. glanduliflora are encountered occasionally where the two species occur together. The hybrids, P. ×intermedia (Hooker) Rydberg, consisting largely of first-generation crosses (F1 progeny), have a decidedly intermediate floral morphology, combining glandular, mostly nonciliate sepals more than 3 mm long and pinkish, cylindric to ovoid corollas.
Selected References
None.
