Not to be confused with : Coppery Monkeyflower (Mimulus × bernteii)., which it most closely resembles. Indeed, it is most frequently mistaken for this, but Coppery Monkeyflower is much less abundant.

Monkeyflowers are complicated, with numerous hybrids abounding:

Hybrid Monkeyflower is the hybrid between Monkeyflower (Mimulus guttatus) and Blood-Drop Emlets (Mimulus luteus), which is much less likely to be found.

Scottish Monkeyflower (Mimulus guttatus) is a double-hybrid between Hybrid Moneyflower(Mimulus × Robertsii) and Coppery Monkeyflower (Mimulus × bernetii).

There is another double-hybrid called Mimulus cupreus × guttatus × luteus, this time between Monkeyflower (Mimulus guttatus) and Blood-Drop Emlets (Mimulus luteus) plus Mimulus cupreus (which seems to lack a common name).

No relation to : Monkey Orchid [a plant with similar name from a differing family].
