Abstract
The distribution maps from websites offering information on this and other weeds sometimes disagree. The Encyclopedia of Life (EOL 2019) and Flora of North America (eFloras 2019) report that Wright Saltbush (Fig. 9.1) only grows below 4000 ft. However, the SEINet (2019) map showing the species around CWF is correct; the plant does just fine in CWF (altitude 4600 ft). The conflict might indicate that pressed plants were not present in the herbaria the describers were using when they wrote the descriptions.
