Taxonomic Comments

According to FNA (2014, vol. 9): Early reports of Ivesia pygmaea from Nevada are based on P. A. Rydberg's (1898) mistaken understanding of the type locality, which is actually in Tulare County, California. A reported occurrence from the northern Sierra Nevada in Nevada (J. T. Kartesz 1987) is presumably based on the same source as the unconfirmed report of I. lycopodioides from the same locality (D. D. Keck 1938).
