    1. Reviewed by John C Game    Jun 21, 2000

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

    Reviewer's comments:
         "The yellow petals and lunate gland at the petal bases indicate clearly that this is C. luteus, not C. venustus. C. luteus often but not always has the red-brown spot on the petals, visible here.
