notes Basal leaf rosette for a plant of the ''Owens Valley Morph'' within the ''Nemacladus sigmoideus complex''. Members of this complex are closely related and typically key to to N. sigmoideus in the present Nemacladus treatment...but author Nancy Morin is working on a revised treatment that recognizes & delineates a number of distinct taxa (such as this one) within the complex. This taxon also appears in these posts by Steve Matson, who originally found these plants and graciously led our visit to the site. Postscript (4/25/20): This is now recognized as a new species, N. matsonii, per the treatment in: Nancy R. Morin and Tina J. Ayers 'NEW SPECIES AND A NEW VARIETY OF NEMACLADUS (CAMPANULACEAE, NEMACLADOIDEAE) AND A KEY TO THE SPECIES,' Madroño 67(1), 35-60, (23 April 2020). https://doi.org/10.3120/0024-9637-67.1.35 Some diagnostic characters include: flowers resupinate (corolla lobes '2 up, 3 down', anther column curved downward); corolla tube cup-shaped; filament tube reddish, anthers whitish; corolla lobes yellow-tipped & with yellow markings at the bases of the lower lobes; top portion of the filament tube & anthers with sparse, long, spreading hairs. photo category: Plant - annual/perennial
