Discussion
Mentzelia lagarosa is allopatric with two of the three species most similar to it, namely M. holmgreniorum and M. filifolia, and nearly allopatric with the third, M. laciniata. Where the ranges of M. lagarosa and M. laciniata overlap in western Colorado, they can be distinguished by petal length [8.3–13 mm in M. lagarosa versus 14–23.8(–26) mm in M. laciniata], outermost stamen length (6.5–10.7 mm in M. lagarosa versus 12–20 mm in M. laciniata), and number of seed coat cell papillae (29–31 per cell in M. lagarosa versus 5–14 per cell in M. laciniata); in addition, M. lagarosa bears both simple grappling-hook and needlelike trichomes on its adaxial leaf blade surfaces, whereas leaf blades of M. laciniata bear only needlelike trichomes adaxially. In the Intermountain Flora, N. H. Holmgren et al. (2005) treated M. lagarosa as a synonym of M. multiflora, but J. J. Schenk and L. Hufford (2011) showed not only that M. lagarosa is distinct from M. multiflora, but also that the latter does not occur in the intermountain region.
