The most logical point to suggest within subg. Ganysma is somewhere around the <i>E. inflatum</i> complex. The bright green color of the flowering stems and inflorescence branches, the pubescent yellow flowers, and the near-glabrous condition of the plant body are somewhat akin to those found in <i>Stenogonum</i>. Each of these segregate genera is confined to arid regions in the American West, all appear to have rather recent origins, and each seems to be exhibiting a type of variation different from the norm seen among the annual wild buckwheats.</p> |tables= |references= }}<!-- --><!-- -->{{#Taxon: name=Goodmania |author=James L.
