Castilleja lineata
Also called Linear Lobed Paintbrush
Castilleja lineata, commonly known as marshmeadow paintbrush or linearlobe paintbrush, is an uncommon species that largely grows in the mountains of northern New Mexico, but is also found in small areas of neighboring Colorado and Arizona. It was not scientifically described until 1901 and is little studied.
Castilleja lineata grows in three western US states, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico. The majority of the range is in New Mexico, with the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service PLANTS database listing as growing in four north western counties, Cibola, Rio Arriba, Sandoval, and Taos. In Colorado it is only found in two southern counties, Archuleta and Las Animas. To the west it only is found in Apache County, Arizona.
