Harpaphe haydeniana, the widest-ranging species, is divided into six subspecies distinguished by geography and subtle differences in color and morphology. H. hayedniana spans the range of Harpaphe, occurring from Monterey County, California to Southeast Alaska. Harpaphe pottera occurs in Mendocino and Humboldt counties in northern California, while Harpaphe telodonta occurs in Humboldt and Del Norte counties, California.[1]
