| Discussion | Subspecies 2 (2 in the flora). Perideridia bolanderi is distinguishable from all other species in the genus by the following combination of characters: ultimate divisions of the basal leaves dimorphic, or if homomorphic, less than 1 mm wide; bracts and bractlets broad, conspicuously scarious, and cuspidate or acuminate, or if only broadly scarious-margined and acuminate, the bracts persistent at maturity; and mericarps oblong with 2–3 oil ducts in the intervals. Although the two subspecies share this combination of characters, phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequence data shows that they do not form a monophyletic group, though this separation is only weakly supported (S. R. Downie et al. 2004). (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Subspecies 2 (2 in the flora). Plants of Perideridia parishii greatly resemble those of P. lemmonii; the only consistent distinction between them is that mericarps of P. parishii have 3 or 4 oil ducts in the intervals and 6 on the commissure whereas those of P. lemmonii have 1 in the intervals and 2 on the commissure.
