Erythranthe cardinalis (Douglas ex Benth.) Spach[HC2]
scarlet monkey-flower

Publication: Phytoneuron 2012-39: 1–60. 2012.

Origin: Introduced

selected vouchers: WTU

Notes: The occurrences in WA are localized in Yakima County near the confluence of Oak Creek and the Tieton River. It is likely that there were homesteads historically in the Oak Creek drainage and that the persistent populations represent naturalized escapes from prior cultivation.
