Discussion

Muilla transmontana is found in coniferous forests in mountains of northern California and northwestern Nevada, and infrequently on sagebrush flats of lower elevations. The filaments are dilated and connate at the base to form a nectariferous cup similar to that seen in Bloomeria crocea.
