Distribution in the state as for L. suhpinnatus Lagr. Distribution 

 Map 6. In Arizona and New Mexico. Ajiril-Jnly. Plants cited 

 below from the Mohave Desert and from near Lancaster (type loc. 

 for L. trispermus Greene) are referred to this species since they 

 appear to be nothinfj- other than small plants of L. humistratus. L. 

 trispermus Greene therefore is not accepted as a distinct species.
