Formal Taxonomy
Plantae - Coniferophyta - Pinopsida - Pinales - Pinaceae - Abies - Following Kartesz (1994 checklist and 1999 floristic synthesis), both the Rocky Mountain and Pacific Northwest components are included here in a single species. The Flora of North America (vol. 2, 1993) considers A. bifolia of the Rocky Mountain region to be a separate species. Kartesz (1994 and 1999) recognizes var. arizonica in Ariz., N.Mex., and Colo.; this includes some but not all of the plants treated by FNA as A. bifolia. LEM 17May95, rev. 28Oct01 LEM.
