yellow pinyon buckwheat, Eriogonum microthecum var. ambiguum

            yellow pinyon buckwheat, Eriogonum microthecum var. ambiguum, Nevada, White Mountains, Middle Creek, Fishlake Valley drainage, elevation 2541 m (8335 ft).

This variety is common in dry upland habitats at middle elevations in the northwestern part of the Great Basin.  About the only thing separating var. ambiguum from white-flowered var. laxiflorum is the yellow flower color, but the two varieties mostly seem to maintain separate populations.  The var. ambiguum has a much more restricted geographic range, although completely included in the larger range of var. laxiflorum.
