Discussion

Of conservation concern.

Variety insulare is confined mainly to low mountains from Monterey County to Santa Barbara County and on the Channel Islands. In northwestern Mexico, it is disjunct to the immediate coast and off-shore islands near Ensenada, and on Guadalupe Island; on the islands the leaves can be up to 5.5 cm wide.
