    1. Reviewed by Lee Dittmann    Jun 4, 2003

    Action: changed name from "Camissonia sp." to "Oenothera sp. "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "Close inspection reveals a four-lobed stigma, which distinguishes Oenothera from Camissonia, plus the latter do not have such large petals (in the southwest, anyway). I was unable to key the species, however, since the key requires seed capsules and a better idea of the size of the flower parts. No species description I can find in either The Jepson Manual or Arizona Flora mentions one with white petals with yellow centers, as shown here.

    Reviewer's comments:
         "This image was previously correctly identified as an Oenothera, but when one knows the geography and the leaf features rather than key diagnostic features it is possible to identify"
