Eriogonum diclinum is found infrequently in the Siskiyou and Trinity mountains of northwest California (Siskiyou and Trinity counties) and southwest Oregon (Jackson and Josephine counties). The species approaches E. incanum in aspect, and reports of that species in Oregon were based on staminate specimens of E. diclinum.

Of conservation concern. Eriogonum twisselmannii is a rare species of the southern Sierra Nevada and is known only from Slate Mountain and The Needles in Tulare County. It is worthy of being on a “watch” list of rare plants in California, but because of its remote location, it is not threatened.
