|discussion=<p><i>Lithophragma parviflorum</i> is easily identified throughout its range, although morphological variation is apparent when comparing specimens from different habitats and elevations in western North America. Some authors treat <i>L. trifoliatum</i> as a variety of <i>L. parviflorum</i>.</p>
