New for the Tucson Mts flora! Photo voucher only - I just found these 2 plants (didn't do a very wide search though). Shoutout to the blooming Evolvulus nuttallianus that prompted me to stop, wouldn't have seen it otherwise!

Strongly stoloniferous, densely hairy at nodes. Couldn't find any reproductive features on it. Interesting plant community in this area.

Wondering if this could be P. crenulata, which I've never confirmed for Salero Ranch. P. bombycina is very common here and has similar though typically broader, more ovate leaves. I collected a specimen but even so I may not figure it out...

Just learned from Sue Rutman yesterday that most books mis-ID P. tenella as P. gordonii, and she IDed plants in King Cyn as P. tenella. So my guess on these would be P. tenella!

iNat info doesn’t quite line up with two other sources, but I’m going with this ID for now.

Same spot as population found in 2022. Around 50 small plants removed. No others found in the area.
Final 2 photos show a side-by-side comparison with native look-alike Daucus pusillus (American wild carrot): Daucus on the left, Oncosiphon (stinknet) on the right.
