Subspecies insularis is endemic to Santa Rosa Island, where it is known only from near Old Ranch Point and is considered seriously threatened (California Native Plant Society, http://cnps.web.aplus.net/cgi-bin/inv/inventory.cgi). It is remarkable for its small size and for the large number of rosette leaves.
