Discussion
Of conservation concern.
Ivesia webberi is known only from the eastern foothills of the northern Sierra Nevada and scattered ranges to the east in California and adjacent Nevada. It is among the more distinctive species in the genus and is only tentatively placed in sect. Ivesia. The leaflets are loosely incised into slender, sparsely villous segments, and the two cauline leaves are paired with dissected stipules. Previous reports of the stems and inflorescence branches being glandular-puberulent are due to a misinterpretation of the minute pustulose bases associated with the villous indumentum as being enlarged glands.
