|discussion=<p>This treatment follows J. Kuijt (2003), who considered <i>Phoradendron bolleanum</i> to be a widespread and variable species complex. The three main taxa that often have been recognized as species are <i>Phoradendron bolleanum</i> in the narrow sense, P. densum, and P. pauciflorum,. <i>Phoradendron bolleanum</i> in the narrow sense has small, narrow leaves and frequently parasitizes <i>Juniperus</i> as well as <i>Arbutus</i>. The P. pauciflorum variant has broad leaves and mostly parasitizes <i>Abies concolor</i>. The P. densum variant tends to have leaves that are intermediate between those of the other two variants; it ranges from Oregon to Mexico and parasitizes <i>Cupressus</i> and <i>Juniperus</i>. Molecular analyses indicate that <i>P. bolleanum</i> is not monophyletic unless P. minutifolium Urban is synonymized with the other variants. Hybrids between <i>P. bolleanum</i> and <i>P. juniperinum</i> produce plants closely resembling P. minutifolium (D. Wiens and M. DeDecker 1972). As pointed out by Kuijt, molecular studies will be required to determine species boundaries within this complex.</p>
