Of conservation concern. Although Draba carnosula was reduced by Hitchcock to a variety of D. howellii, it differs significantly by having leafless flowering stems, 2–6-flowered racemes, and broadly winged seeds 3–4.5 mm in diam. Draba howellii almost always has 1–3-leaved stems, (5–)7–18(–25)-flowered racemes, and not winged, distally appendaged seeds 1–1.6 mm in diam. Draba carnosula is known only from a few collections from Mount Eddy in Trinity County and the north side of Mount Shasta in Siskiyou County.

Of conservation concern. Draba jaegeri is superficially similar to D. hitchcockii, a narrow endemic of the Lost River Range in central Idaho. Both species are cespitose perennials with relatively large, white flowers, and a chromosome number (2n = 54) otherwise unknown in Draba (M. D. Windham 2004). Draba jaegeri is readily distinguished from D. hitchcockii by having fruits pubescent with (2–)4-rayed trichomes, styles (1.2–)2–4(–4.5) mm, fruiting pedicels 2–6(–8) mm, and spatulate petals 1.5–2 mm wide. By contrast, D. hitchcockii has fruits pubescent with mostly simple and 2-rayed trichomes (with 3- or 4-rayed ones), styles (0.8–)1–1.7(–2) mm, fruiting pedicels (2–)4–13(–18) mm, and obovate petals 2–3.5 mm wide. Draba jaegeri is known only from the Charleston Mountains in Clark County. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
