Discussion

For the most part, var. eremophila is geographically separate from var. acradenia. In southwestern Nevada many intergrades occur; in San Bernadino County, California, the two taxa appear to be contiguous with little or no intergradation. In the latter area, the taxa apparently are at different ploidy levels.
