Abstract

Scabland penstemon is a widespread species occurring as scattered populations from central Washington to western Montana and northwestern Wyoming to Nevada and California (Lindgren and Wilde 2003; St. John et al. 2009; LBJWC 2014). Populations are limited to Box Elder County in northwestern Utah (Cronquist et al. 1984; Welsh et al. 2016), the northern two-thirds of Nevada (Cronquist et al. 1984; Hitchcock and Cronquist 2018), and the Klamath, North Coast, Cascade, Sierra Nevada Ranges and Modoc Plateau regions of California (Hickman 1993).
