Erythronium howellii, or Howell's fawn lily, is a flowering bulb in the lily family endemic to northwestern California and southwestern Oregon.[http://www.calflora.org/cgi-bin/species_query.cgi?where-taxon=Erythronium+howellii Calflora taxon report, Erythronium howellii S. Watson][http://apps.kew.org/wcsp/namedetail.do?name_id=305775 Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families]
It has been reclassified by the Jepson Manual as Erythronium citrinum var. citrinum.[http://ucjeps.berkeley.edu/eflora/eflora_display.php?tid=58888 Jepson eFlora: Erythronium citrinum var. citrinum] . accessed 10.12.2017[http://www.calflora.org/cgi-bin/species_query.cgi?where-taxon=Erythronium+citrinum+var.+citrinum Calflora Database: Erythronium citrinum var. citrinum] . accessed 10.12.2017
Distribution
It is found in the Klamath Mountains and northern Outer California Coast Ranges.
There are small populations in Siskiyou, Trinity, and Del Norte Counties in northern California; and in Curry, Josephine, and Jackson Counties in Oregon.Clennett, C. (2014). The genus Erythronium: 1-158. Kew Publishing, Kew.[https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/3054061#page/502/mode/1up Watson, Sereno. 1887. Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences 22(2): 480] It is listed as vulnerable for the following reasons: "Range is Del Norte Co., Calif., and adjacent southern Oregon. Most of the populations occur in Oregon, a few in California. Oregon sites number <38. Populations are not large, many reported during pre-timber harvest surveys."{{Cite web|url=http://explorer.natureserve.org/servlet/NatureServe?sourceTemplate=tabular_report.wmt&loadTemplate=species_RptComprehensive.wmt&selectedReport=RptComprehensive.wmt&summaryView=tabular_report.wmt&elKey=132018&paging=home&save=true&startIndex=1&nextStartIndex=1&reset=false&offPageSelectedElKey=154772&offPageSelectedElType=species&offPageYesNo=true&post_processes=&radiobutton=radiobutton&selectedIndexes=154772&selectedIndexes=128434&selectedIndexes=142417&selectedIndexes=132944&selectedIndexes=130409&selectedIndexes=129890&selectedIndexes=958325&selectedIndexes=874071&selectedIndexes=129526&selectedIndexes=147231&selectedIndexes=159467&selectedIndexes=950194&selectedIndexes=161734&selectedIndexes=153955&selectedIndexes=132018&selectedIndexes=153385&selectedIndexes=159267&selectedIndexes=145514&selectedIndexes=149246&selectedIndexes=143261|title=Comprehensive Report Species -|website=explorer.natureserve.org|language=en|access-date=2018-04-14}}
