Of conservation concern. Eriogonum nortonii is a rare and localized species restricted to the Gabilan Range of Monterey and San Benito counties, from Fremont Peak south to The Pinnacles. It is confined largely to two protected areas, the Hastings Natural History State Reservation and the Pinnacles National Monument. A disjunct population is found southeast of Carmel Highlands in the Santa Lucia Mountains of Monterey County. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Of conservation concern. Eriogonum glandulosum is a localized species that varies from rare to common in southeastern Inyo and extreme northeastern San Bernardino counties, California, and in southern Nye, northern Clark, and southwestern Lincoln counties, Nevada. The name E. glandulosum may not be the earliest for the taxon. The type of E. cordatum Torrey & Frémont (1845, as “cordalum”) was collected by Frémont most likely near the California-Nevada border, where E. trichopes, E. contiguum, and E. glandulosum occur. Because the description is not decisive, and because J. Torrey and A. Gray (1870) reported the type as missing, it is impossible to place the name unequivocally. Nonetheless, E. cordatum was reported to be glandular (“glaneous”) with the leaves “pubescent above, hairy underneath.” The glandular condition probably eliminates E. trichopes, while those leaf features probably exclude E. contiguum.
