Taxonomic Comments
According to Stoughton et al. (2017), "The taxonomic history of Claytonia lanceolata is fraught with confusion." Their treatment is significantly different than the one accepted in Kartesz (1994 and 1999). They exclude C. obovata (a name not addressed in either Kartesz treatment, but which Stoughton et al. say was included in synonymy in 1966) and of the varieties accepted in C. lanceolata by Kartesz, they exclude var. flava, var. multiscapa, var. pacifica, and var. peirsonii. From it, they also describe two new species, C. panamintensis and C. serpenticola.
