Lane Mountain Milk Vetch (Astragalus jaegerianus) is an endangered plant species endemic to the Mojave Desert in California.
One of Jones' most notable accomplishments was his self-published revision of the North American species of Astragalus.
This plant was originally described as Astragalus plumbeus, as the plant is grayish in color and it was first collected near Leadville, Colorado.
