Discussion
Subspecies 5 (5 in the flora).
The Frangula rubra complex is a group of closely related populations that needs study. In Nevada, they occur only in Douglas and Washoe counties. Descriptions by C. B. Wolf (1938) provide only a single distinct character to separate the subspecies, and he reported much intergradations between subsp. obtusissima and all the other subspecies. Field and herbarium studies argue for the recognition of infraspecific taxa despite the intermediates.
Subspecies yosemitana and Frangula californica subsp. cuspidata grow along the east side of the Sierra Nevada and can be easily confused. Plants of both taxa can be deciduous, but Wolf noted differences in pubescence and leaf margin to differentiate the two, although both are variable throughout their ranges.
Selected References
None.
