This map is based on our research. We have checked its accuracy to Level 3 ecoregions. Although this plant occurs somewhere in each of these regions, it may only occur in a small part of some or all of them.

↑Notes

We prefer the common name "Cascade-Saxifrage" to "Nuttall's saxifrage" both because we prefer descriptive terms to honorifics, the descriptor is accurate (this species is indeed found in the Cascades, although it also appears in mountains to the west as well), and the hyphenation connotes that this species is somehow different from a "normal" saxifrage, i.e. that it has been reclassified into its own genus, not the Saxifraga genus of true saxifrages.
