    Formal Taxonomy
    Plantae - Anthophyta - Dicotyledoneae - Fabales - Fabaceae - Lupinus - Some treatments include the following as infraspecific taxa under Lupinus lepidus; all of them are included in other taxa by Kartesz (Feb. 1999 draft data): ssp./var. aridus, ssp. caespitosus, ssp./var. confertus, ssp./var. cusickii, ssp./var. medius, var. artulus, var. culbertsonii, var. lobbii, var. ramosus, var. sellulus, var. torreyi, and var. utahensis. It appears that COSEWIC uses a broader treatment of L. lepidus such that the taxon they give status (L. lepidus var. lepidus) is the same as L. lepidus as treated in Kartesz (1999).
