    1. Reviewed by Amelia Ryan    Dec 27, 2010

    Action: changed name from "Chorizanthe watsonii" to "Chorizanthe wheeleri "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "C. watsonii has yellow flowers, and five teeth on the involucre. C. wheeleri is endemic to the Channel islands and has pink flowers. Misidentification probably due to the similarity of the names."
