Phemeranthus parviflorus (Nutt.) Kiger

Formerly a member of Talinum, and the most common and widespread member of this segregate genus in New Mexico. There is some uncertainty regarding whether these plants should be treated as Phemeranthus confertiflorus or Phemeranthus parviflorus; I am following Kelly Allred's Flora Neomexicana.
