    1. Reviewed by Stephen Lowens    May 4, 2002

    Action: changed name from "Calochortus superbus" to "Calochortus venustus "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "The red splotches in the center of the petals and the rectangular gland hairs indicate that the species is venustus. Also, the location is a more likely location for venustus - superbus is a Sierran species.
