Formerly considered a subspecies of L. pyromelana, Burbrink et al. (2011, Mol. Phylogenet. Evol. 60: 445–454) demonstrated the existence of two species using coalescent species delimitation methods and ecological niche modeling. The complex comprises a northern species on the Colorado Plateau (L. pyromelana) and a southern species (L. knoblochi) found primarily on the Sierra Madre Occidental and associated Madrean Sky Islands.
