Eriogonum collinum is infrequent to locally common in the Lahontan Basin region of the Intermountain West in northeastern California (Lassen and Modoc counties), south-central Oregon (Lake County), and northwestern Nevada (Douglas, Humboldt, Lyon, Pershing, Storey, and Washoe counties).

Of conservation concern. Eriogonum cusickii is fairly common in scattered portions of Deschutes, Harney, Klamath, and Lake counties. It is gradually being introduced into cultivation. Eriogonum prociduum is distinct from E. cusickii, but some populations of the latter in Lake County, Oregon, south of Christmas Valley and northwest of Wagontire, have capitate inflorescences even in fruit. These plants differ from typical E. prociduum by consistently having small, rather narrow leaf blades (3–6 × 1–4 mm) that sheath up the flowering stems.
