Of conservation concern. Based on morphological and chromosomal data (L. Allphin and M. D. Windham, unpubl.), Draba brachystylis is hypothesized to be an allopolyploid derived through hybridization between D. albertina and D. santaquinensis. It is known to us only from Cache, Duchesne, Juab, Salt Lake, and Utah counties. C. L. Hitchcock (1941) indicated that the species grows in the Charleston Mountains of Clark County, Nevada, but we have not seen unequivocal material of it from that area.

Of conservation concern. Draba paucifructa is known from the Charleston Mountains in Clark County. M. D. Windham (2004) suggested that it is an allopolyploid resulting from hybridization between D. albertina and D. lonchocarpa, and he discussed the morphological features that distinguish this species from its putative parents.
