Found in Del Norte County, California, in the Tolowa Dunes State Park, there is an Erysimum population that does not fit the species boundaries of E.concinnum Eastw., its current assigned name. A closely related species, E. menziesi (Hook.) Wettst arguably better fits the morphology of the Tolowa Wallflower, with the caveat that it does not adequately depict the population. Because of the endemicity of the two aforementioned species and the Tolowa wallflower, correct taxonomic assessment and a clear definition of species boundaries are warranted. To evaluate the species boundaries and circumscription of the Tolowa wallflower, we would collect DNA samples from Erysimum found on the coast.
