Taxonomic Comments
Kartesz (1994) here recognizes three varieties: harrimaniae, neomexicana, and sterilis. FNA (vol. 26, 2002) elevates Y. harrimaniae var. neomexicana (= Y. neomexicana) to full species and does not recognize Y. harrimaniae var. harrimaniae and Y. harrimaniae var. sterilis as distinct.
