Frequency and depth of leaf lobing distinguishes between ssp. ludoviciana and
ssp. incompta.
These leaves are neither 2°-divided, nor deeper than ⅓-width, nor divided
nearly to the mid-rib. Therefore, ssp. ludoviciana is applied rather than ssp.

Taylor (2010) refers all collections of Symphyotrichum spathulatum made in the central Sierra Nevada (cSN) to var. yosemitanum based upon the character of linear leaves. However, so far, my collections (498, 708, 715, & 724) of the taxon in the Mono Lake basin have had lanceolate to narrowly elliptic leaves, which would lead one to var. spathulatum. - Big Sand Flat,

here is no Conway Creek. I suspect the collector is referring to the Mono Ditch that takes water from Virginia Creek and delivers it to Mono Diggins.
