Discussion | Erythranthe filicaulis is known only for certain from Mariposa and Tuolumne counties. Kappler 1691 (UCLA) from Madera County also may be this species. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
The occurrence of Erythranthe jungermannioides in the Columbia River Gorge of Klickitat County, Washington (the only record from the state of Washington), is based on an imprecise, unconfirmed observation from the early 1990s (Washington National Heritage Program 2005).
