Draba petrophila is often broadly circumscribed to include the taxon herein called D. viridis. For a discussion of the differences between these species and the closely related D. helleriana, see I. A. Al-Shehbaz and M. D. Windham (2007). Draba petrophila, in the strict sense, is known only from Cochise, Pima, and Santa Cruz counties in southeastern Arizona.

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.) |
