    1. Reviewed by Lee Dittmann    Nov 26, 2001

    Action: changed name from "Calochortus luteus" to "Calochortus sp. "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "The nodding flowers, yellow petals, and apparently branched stems above the base make this either C. amabilis (my first choice) or C. pulchellus (the key points from The Jepson Manual, upon which dust jacket this same photographer's image of the latter graces.) It bears no resemblance to C. luteus at all, as originally labelled.
