| Reviewer's comments: | | | "Hi Aaron--I think all the images you just put up from Lamont Trailhead are actually N. sigmoideus, albeit with a longer tube than usual. N. secundiflorus has really big anthers with long long hairs and the corolla lobes are wider. I didn't want to annotate all of them in case you just wanted to change them yourself. It is a really interesting find, though--that southern Sierra Nevada has a LOT of different Nemacladus, it turns out." |

| Reviewer's comments: | | | "Thanks for reviewing & correcting this, Nancy!
I think I may have erred at couplet 13 in the eFlora key by focusing on this image of the series and interpreting the corolla tube as cylindric...whereas the corolla tubes are clearly seen to be ""bell-shaped"" in the full-size image here.
The presence of long hairs at the tip of the stamen tube is a good diagnostic to keep in mind for N. secundiflorus...as is the lack of such hairs for N. sigmoideus ;-)." |

| Reviewer's comments: | | | "NB: As an addendum/correction to my preceding comment...note that while N. secundiflorus has long hairs near the tip of the stamen tube, it's not necessarily true that all members of the "N. sigmoideus complex" must lack such hairs! I jumped too quickly to an (incorrect) "conclusion" when I wrote the preceding comment. For instance, the following posts from the "N. sigmoideus complex" have long hairs at the tip of the stamen tube: 0000+0000+0610+2568; 0000+0000+0516+2380; and 0000+0000+0417+0525." |
