|discussion=<p>The leaves of <i></i>var.<i> linguifolia</i> are sometimes described as tongue-shaped (M. S. Baker 1957; D. M. Fabijan et al. 1987). Fabijan et al. commented that the distribution of <i></i>var.<i> linguifolia</i> overlaps with <i>V. bakeri</i> in central California, Oregon, and Washington; with <i></i>var.<i> flavovirens</i> in Idaho, Washington, and Wyoming; and with <i>V. tomentosa</i> in the Sierra <i>Nevada</i>. She stated that the morphological variants of <i></i>var.<i> linguifolia</i> observed during her study may be symptomatic of these sympatric distributions, which lead to the possibilities of hybridization and/or introgression. She described the cauline leaves of <i></i>var.<i> linguifolia</i> as ovate to narrowly ovate. As a possible consequence of hybridization and/or introgression, differences in leaf outline have been observed among plants in the same population. In a population of <i></i>var.<i> linguifolia</i> in Modoc County, California, some plants had ovate to narrowly ovate leaf blades, as described by Fabijan et al.; leaf blades on other plants in the same population were elliptic.</p><!--
--><p><i>Viola praemorsa</i> var. altior was treated by M. S. Baker (1957) and D. M. Fabijan et al. (1987) as a synonym of <i>V. praemorsa</i> subsp. linguifolia. Variety altior, described from Montana, is recognized in the Intermountain Flora as occurring in Utah (N. H. Holmgren 2005d). Because the original description of var. altior was meager and no specimens or the type have been examined, it is retained here as a synonym of <i></i>var.<i> linguifolia</i> pending further study.</p><!--
--><p>M. S. Baker (1957) noted that in comparison with <i>Viola nuttallii</i>, which grows in open, sunny areas, <i></i>var.<i> linguifolia</i> is usually found in the shade of trees or shrubs.</p><!--
--><p>Variety linguifolia is reported to hybridize with <i>V. utahensis</i> (G. Davidse 1976).</p>
