Although Draba santaquinensis was included within D. brachystylis by previous authors, I. A. Al-Shehbaz and M. D. Windham (2007) have shown that it is distinct both morphologically and chromosomally. It is currently known only from Utah County (American Fork, Provo, and Santaquin canyons) in north-central Utah. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Draba subumbellata is similar to, and sympatric with, D. oligosperma. It is distinguished from the latter by having stalked, stellate to dendritic leaf trichomes, subumbellate racemes, fruiting pedicels 1.5–3.0(–6.0) mm, fruits pubescent with mostly 4–12-rayed trichomes, and well-formed anthers and pollen. By contrast, D. oligosperma has sessile or subsessile, pectinately-branched leaf trichomes, elongated racemes, fruiting pedicels (2–)3–10(–13) mm, fruits glabrous or pubescent with simple and 2-rayed trichomes, and abortive anthers and/or pollen. Draba subumbellata is restricted to the White Mountains (Esmeralda County, Nevada, and Mono County, California) and to Coyote Ridge in the Sierra Nevada (Inyo County, California).
