| Phenology Comments: | |
| Reproduction Comments: | |
| Habitat Comments: | Bases of steep gorge walls cut into volcanic plateau areas, in the rocky areas below the walls, and occasionally along the ledges in the rock walls and in the loamy area close to the water, usually on north-facing slopes in heavily shaded areas, in the shadscale and sagebrush steppe zones with Rosa woodsii, Leymus cinereus, and many other riparian species, Artemisia tridentata var. tridentata, A. packardiae, Ivesia baileyi, etc. |
| Ecology Comments: | |
| Inventory Comments: | Surveys have been conducted but remain very incomplete for Nevada. |
| Inventory Needs: | Surveys should be done in the areas where sp. was collected in 1980 to determine the size of these populations. Other suitable habitat should be surveyed between the NV and ID populations. |
