Author Location	Ciervo-Panoche Natural Area
Location Narrative	Dispersed Gutierrizia californica stand with Ephedra californica intermixed at low cover. Gutierrezia californica fairly decadent with ~1% absolute cover mortality. Non-native grasses and forbs dominate the herbaceous layer but some natives are intermixed. Good amount of bedrock covered with lichen dispersed throughout stand.
