    edit

    As of April 2023, Plants of the World Online accepted two varieties:[2]

    • Astragalus tegetarioides var. anxius (Meinke & Kaye) S.L.Welsh
    • Astragalus tegetarioides var. tegetarioides

    Astragalus tegetarioides var. anxius is treated by other sources as the full species Astragalus anxius, in which case A. tegetarioides is native only to Oregon and A. anxius to California.[4]
