Reviewed by Dean Taylor Jun 3, 2003

Action: changed name from "Oxytropis deflexa var. sericea" to "Oxytropis campestris "

Reviewer's comments:

"based on elevation, this is most probably O. campestris (which is high elevation), but may also be (if oddly disjunct) O. sericea (very doubtful, cf. Vera Komarakova thesis on RMNP vegetation)
