Two new combinations, Saltugilia splendens (Douglas ex H. Mason & A. D. Grant) L. A. Johnson and S. splendens subsp. grantii (Brand) L. A. Johnson, are proposed for taxa transferred from Gilia Ruiz & Pavón on the basis of phylogenetic relationship. The affinities of G. scopulorum M. E. Jones, G. stellata A. Heller, and G. yorkii Shevock & A. G. Day, three species that have been allied with Saltugilia V. E. Grant & A. D. Grant when treated as a section of Gilia, are reevaluated.
