Annotation Notes
04/29/2007 Mark Egger  taxon changed Castilleja nana Castilleja sp.
This is definitely C. peirsonii, incorrectly reduced to synonymy under C. parviflora in the Jepson. It is definitely NOT C. nana, which is a much shorter, more compact plant, never with yellow bracts. I have listed it as "Castilleja species", since I do not wish to perpetuate the myth that C. peirsonii is a synonym of C. parviflora.
