Taxonomic Comments
This record is for the narrow treatment of Monardella odoratissima as recognized in Kartesz (1999) which excludes previously recognized M. odoratissima ssp. australis as the distinct species M. australis and ssp. glauca and ssp. parviflora as the distinct species, M. glauca. Kartesz (1994) recognized the broader treatment. Brunell (2020) recognizes the additional subspecies franciscana, obispoensis, and villosa.
