Sidalcea keckii
''Sidalcea keckii'' is a rare species of flowering plant in the mallow family known by the common name Keck's checkerbloom, or Keck's checkermallow. It is endemic to California, where it is known from three recent occurrences in the southernmost Sierra Nevada foothills, all of which may have been extirpated by now.〔(The Nature Conservancy )〕 The plant was thought extinct until it was rediscovered at one site in Tulare County in 1992; this site, which was located on private land, has since been converted for orange groves, possibly eliminating the plant.〔USFWS. (Final designation of critical habitat for ''Sidalcea keckii'' (Keck's checkermallow). ) ''Federal Register'' March 18, 2003.〕 The owner of the land has not allowed any searches for the plant since then, but the area is considered critical habitat for this federally listed endangered species.〔
This is an annual herb growing up to 35 centimeters tall which is bristly from top to base. The leaves have blades shallowly edged or deeply divided into lobes, the upper blades with toothed edges. The inflorescence is a dense cluster of a few flowers with deep pink petals measuring 1 to 2 centimeters long. Each flower has a calyx of pointed green sepals which may be streaked with pink.
