Draba globosa is an apomictic species closely related to D. burkei (M. D. Windham, unpubl.). Though often treated as a variety of D. densifolia, it is morphologically and phyletically distinct from that species. Both R. C. Rollins (1993) and N. H. Holmgren (2005b) indicated that the species occurs in Colorado, but we have not seen material for that state. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
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.
