Stylocline citroleum
Stylocline citroleum is a rare species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae known by the common name oil neststraw.
It is endemic to Kern County, California, where it is known from about 46 occurrences on and around the Elk Hills Oil Field. The occurrences are patchy and variable in size, and some sources consider them to be part of a single widely spread metapopulation. The species has been collected from coastal San Diego County, but any occurrences there are probably now extirpated.
