Abstract

The mitotic chromosome count for Toxicoscordion exaltatum (2n = 22), documented for the first time here, matches the number formerly reported for other species in the genus. A base number of x = 11 is synapomorphic for Toxicoscordion. An updated overview of this recently resurrected segregate genus is given.
