My goal for this outing was to locate Camissoniopsis ignota which was vouchered here in May of 2006, and for which I have been looking for some time. I found the exact place where the voucher was collected and found a Camissoniopsis species there, but alas it turned out to be C. intermedia. So, another failure and another disappointment in this ongoing search. I will next search the Santa Margarita River Trail where Tom Chester recorded C. ignota. Box Springs Mountain Reserve is adjacent to the town of Moreno Valley where the big M is inscribed on the mountainside. The symbol ^ is for a taxon that was new to me when I photographed it on this field trip, and an asterisk indicates a non-native species.
