TAXONOMY : 
The currently accepted scientific name of tailcup lupine is Lupinus
caudatus Kellogg [14,15,19,53].  Lupinus is a taxonomically complex
genus and there is much confusion regarding nomenclature.  Species
within the genus are extremely variable and freely intergrade, making
morphological characteristics used to separate taxa few and
inconsistent.  There is much disagreement among authorities concerning
recognized subspecies, varieties, and forms [15,19,53].
