Location Narrative	The native Poaceae is probably Melica imperfecta considering we saw it in a nearby polygon. Opuntia is patchy but spread throughout polygon. Native bunchgrass mixed with Opuntia whereas the more open areas without Opuntia are dominated by non-native annual grasses. Opuntia oricola mixed in polygon, there may be some hybridization.
