Discussion
Of conservation concern.
Helianthus exilis is very similar morphologically to H. bolanderi and is often included in it; there are discrete differences between the two for fatty acid composition (C. E. Rogers et al. 1982) as well as some molecular markers (L. H. Rieseberg et al. 1988). It is listed as of concern by the California Native Plant Society.
