Remarks
Etymology: The epithet was suggested by the plant's apparent isolation from its near relatives to the north and east. M. isolata was observed only in one locality where about a dozen plants were scattered along a mountain trail, suggesting they had been established there by seeds dropped from fruits snared in the hair of passing animals
