Author Location ? New Hogan Lake, Calaveras County
Location Narrative ? This stand is a grazed California Annual Grassland with deep soil, in a sort of valley bottom/drainage with a very gradual slope. There is high bioturbation from both cattle and gophers (or some sort of burrowing animal). It appears that the cattle are selectively not grazing the Taeniatherum caput-medusae because those patches are taller than the surrounding vegetation.
