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.
