Of conservation concern. Erigeron lemmonii is found only in the Scheelite Canyon, Huachuca Mountains (Cochise County), on Fort Huachuca Military Reservation. The basal portion of the stems may be “subnaked and rhizomatous in appearance, but apparently not subterranean” (A. Cronquist 1947). (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Varieties 3 (3 in the flora). Erigeron concinnus has been treated within E. pumilus; G. L. Nesom (1983b) found that these species approach each other closely in geographic range without intergradation. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
