State Rank Reason (see State Rank above)
Navarretia leucocephala is not documented in Montana. It was included in the Flora of Montana (Rydberg 1900), but a specimen has not been found and Navarretia taxonomy has greatly changed over the century. A specimen (MONTU 31773) at The University of Montana herbarium was annotated to Navarretia saximontana . Other reports have been mis-identified and no Montana specimens have been verified. A conservation status rank is not applicable (SNA) because this plant is not known to occur in Montana.
