Discussion

Variety nutans is rare to infrequent throughout its range. It is most commonly encountered in Nevada and just enters Arizona (Mohave County), California (Mono County), Oregon (Harney County), and western Utah (Beaver, Juab, Millard, Piute, Sanpete, Sevier, and Tooele counties). It has been found east of Wellington, Carbon County, Utah (Ripley & Barneby 8640, CAS, NY), although it has not been seen there since 1947.
