|discussion=<p>Variety caudata is both widespread and variable throughout much of Alaska and enters western and northern Yukon and into extreme northern British Columbia. The precise eastern extent of its range is incompletely known, especially since it is often similar to and easily confused with both <i></i>var.<i> yukonis</i> and northern variants of <i>Castilleja elegans</i> and <i>C. raupii</i>. It apparently occurs in far northeastern Asia, but its status and distribution there is incompletely understood. See additional notes for this form under 81. <i>C. pallida</i>.</p>
