Discussion

Of conservation concern.

Draba viridis has been reported from the Huachuca and Santa Catalina mountains in southern Arizona, and the adjacent San Jose Mountains in Sonora, Mexico. It was reduced to a variety of D. petrophila by Hitchcock and a form of D. helleriana by O. E. Schulz, but is easily separated from both (I. A. Al-Shehbaz and M. D. Windham 2007).
