- Observation Different seed shapes distinguish Dodecatheon taxa in southern Illinois and across their ranges.
- Observation Intergrading populations occur in other regions where the two Dodecatheon taxa co-occur.
- Mechanism The seed-shape distinction and high variability suggest localized hybridization may contribute to the complex taxonomic history of Dodecatheon.
