Initial Editorial Comments two records in SMASCH, UC524142 (R. S. Ferris 8400, 1 May 1933, Laguna, San Benito Co.), JEPS100773; in no way mentioned in Munz, Munz Supplement, The Jepson Manual [Ed. 1] (despite Kartesz & Meacham citation); indicated for California and many other states, provinces in Kartesz & Meacham; according to Source d, persistence tenuous, yet conditions of cited occurrences seem to qualify for inclusion in the flora according to criteria employed by Jepson Flora Project (26 Feb 2003)
