REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY. Xxxxxx’x beardtongue appears to be capable of self-pollination (Dodge and Xxxxx 2009), but outcrossed pollination increases reproductive success (Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx 2007). Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx (2007) found that the species’ pollinators and flower visitors include many native bee species (Anthophora lesquerellae, Osmia rawlinsi, Lasioglossum sisymbrii, and Dialictus spp.). In addition, the Penstemon specialist wasp Pseudomasaris vespoides is a likely key pollinator for Xxxxxx’x beardtongue (Dodge and Xxxxx 2009; SWCA unpublished data 2009–2013). Many of these bees are likely ground- and wood-nesting species (Xxxxxxxx et al. 1997; Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx 2007). Seed germination is believed to occur in early spring, because the seeds require cold stratification to germinate (Xxxxxx and Xxxxx 2011).

REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY. White River beardtongue has a mixed mating system, with fruits and seeds being produced both by selfing (autogamy and geitonogamy) and by outcrossing (Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx 2007). However, outcrossing greatly increases the number of fruits and seeds produced (Lewinsohn and Xxxxxxxx 2007). Like Xxxxxx’x beardtongue, pollinators are also important to the successful reproduction of White River beardtongue. Identified pollinators of White River beardtongue include several native solitary bees (Anthophora spp., Ceratina spp., Osmia spp., and Halictus tripartitus) that are both ground-nesting and dead-wood–nesting species (Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx 2007). Similar to Xxxxxx’x beardtongue, seeds likely germinate in early spring because they appear to need cold stratification to break dormancy (USFWS 2013a). Similar to Xxxxxx’x beardtongue, little is known of the dispersal mechanisms for this species. It is likely that wind, gravity, and water play a role in seed dispersal.
