Coordinator notes: No way I can tell if this is acmon or a lupini without evaluating habitat and the population...field marks alone are not reliable for these two without knowing the area...both often occur together but often only acmon occurs...but in areas where lupini occurs, so does acmon!----Ken Davenport
