Notes
Park Species Detail: Currently, all of the former vouchers of A. glaucodes var. pulcher at ZION are considered A. wasatchensis var. pulcher by Welsh et al. 2003. However, Welsh et al. 2003 still reports A. glaucodes from Washington Co., therefore, vouchers of this taxon should be looked for at BYU, J. Alexander 2005, Park Species Data Source: ZION Herbarium & species list review, J. Alexander 2003-2005; Welsh et al. 2003
