|discussion=<p><i>Lithophragma heterophyllum</i> is known in the coastal mountains of southern Oregon and in California from Humboldt to Los Angeles counties. Its variable morphology is associated with the amount of available moisture and site exposure.</p><!--
--><p>Sympatric populations of <i>Lithophragma heterophyllum</i> and <i>L. bolanderi</i> occur in the south-central California Coast Ranges. The distinguishing characteristics for <i>L. heterophyllum</i> are hypanthium shape, petal outline, and exsertion of stigma and style in fruit.</p>
