Dear Michael,

>does the distribution of Darlingtonia enter into the state of Nevada?

No record from Nevada (=state) is known (to me). _Darlingtonia_ is endemic
to N California and S Oregon, mainly W of the main ridges of Cascade Range
and Sierra Nevada (=mountains), reaching (or at least considerably
approaching) the Pacific Ocean. The valleys E of these mountains (and
apparently even their E slopes) are probably too dry for this (apparently
oceanic) genus.

Kind regards
Jan
