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.) |
Draba oxycarpa is an octoploid that most closely resembles the decaploid D. alpina. It is distinguished from that species by having creamy white to pale yellow (versus bright yellow) petals, gray-green (versus purplish tinged) sepals, petals 2.5–3.5 (versus 1.7–2.5) mm wide, stems pubescent proximally with primarily branched (versus primarily simple) trichomes, nearly black (versus pale brown) seeds, and ovate to ovate-oblong (versus elliptic) fruits 3–5 (versus 2–3) mm wide.
