Of conservation concern. Draba standleyi is a distinctive species that is sporadically distributed in the mountains of southwestern United States. It is known from the Chiricahua Mountains (Cochise County, southeastern Arizona), the Organ Mountains and Black Range (Dona Ana and Sierra counties, south-central New Mexico), and the Davis Mountains (Jeff Davis County, western Texas). It has not been reported from Mexico, though it is very likely to occur there. (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.
