Author Location	Ciervo-Panoche Natural Area
Location Narrative	Decadent stand of Eriogonum fasciculatum. Ephedra californica has trace cover and is scattered throughout stand. Poa secunda grows pre-dominantly under Eriogonum fasciculatum. Slope is steep and gravelly with about 1-2% acres of Eriogonum fasciculatum mortality. Geophytes such as Calochortus are randomly scattered throughout stand and Dichelostemma is abundant.
