Flowers 2–2.5 mm; perianth white or, rarely, yellow, glabrous or pubescent. 2n = 40.
Phenology: Flowering Jun–Oct.

Elevation: 1100-2800 m
Distribution
Calif., Mexico (Baja California).
Discussion
Variety pauciflorum is the southern montane, tetraploid expression of the species. It occurs in the Transverse Ranges, southward in the Peninsular Ranges of southern California (Kern, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, Santa Barbara, and Ventura counties), and south to the mountains of northern Baja California. Care must be taken when identifying specimens from the San Jacinto and Santa Rosa mountains in Riverside County to ascertain the age of the plants, as the annual Eriogonum molestum can closely resemble the perennial var. pauciflorum. The yellow-flowered expression of var. pauciflorum is worthy of cultivation.
