Fritillaria ojaiensis is a rare species of fritillary known by the common name Ojai fritillary. This wildflower is endemic to central California, where it is known from very few occurrences in the central Coast Ranges. It produces an erect stem reaching maximum heights near half a meter. The long, straight, very narrow leaves grow in whorls on the lower stem and in pairs near the top. Flowers are produced at intervals. Each nodding flower has six petals one to three centimeters long and greenish yellow to purple in color with purple mottling. At the center is a large nectary surrounded by stamens with large yellow anthers. This plant is similar to Fritillaria affinis and is sometimes considered a rare subtaxon of that species.
