Symphoricarpos guadalupensis, McKittrock's snowberry, [1] is a rare North American species of plants in the honeysuckle family. It has been found only in the Sierra Del Carmen Mountains of Coahuila [2] and in South McKittrick Canyon in the Guadalupe Mountains of western Texas. [3] This is inside Guadalupe Mountains National Park. [4]
Symphoricarpos guadalupensis is a hairless shrub. This distinguishes it sharply from Symphoricarpos palmeri, which can be found growing in the same canyon as S. guadalupensis but is rather hairy. [3]
