Solidago capulinensis Cockerell & Andrews was treated as a synonym of S. wrightii by Semple & Cook (2006).  It is native to Capulin Mt., Union Co., New Mexico.  Nesom & Lowry (2010) reported on the existence of plants growing as escaped cultivars in adjacent Colorado.  Semple et al. (2017) included the species in a multivariate study of all taxa in S. subsect. Thyrsiflorae and found strong statistical support for recognized the species as distinct from S. wrightii ²¹²Ô»åÌýS. petiolaris.  The upper stem leaves of S. capulinensis tend to be serrate unlike those S. wrightii and S. petiolaris and has the shortest outer phyllaries (< 2 m) of all the species in the section.

The chromosome number is unknown.
