- NEED IN SITU PHOTOS. In 2005 John Schenk, Mentzelia expert, vouchered Mentzelia longiloba from 3.5 miles northeast of Del Norte. He describes the species as "common along roadside." His is the only record for the Watershed. Ackerfield (2022) does not include M. longiloba in her flora of Colorado, but SEINet shows four observations in the state, two by Schenk. In the USA, the distribution is centered in Arizona, with many occurrences also in Nevada, Utah, southern New Mexico, and along the Rio Grande drainage of Texas to the Big Bend country.
