Name: Arctostaphylos glandulosa Shrubland Alliance
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: The Arctostaphylos glandulosa Shrubland Alliance (A.757) of California is found on north-facing slopes, outcrops, and ridges on shallow soils. Occurrences range in elevation from 300-2200 m. This alliance often follows disturbance, growing on sites that have been burned, logged, or otherwise disturbed. Arctostaphylos glandulosa dominates this alliance. Six subspecies of Arctostaphylos glandulosa are recognized by the Jepson Manual, any of which may occur in this alliance. Other shrubs present often include Arctostaphylos glauca, Adenostoma fasciculatum, Ceanothus leucodermis, Yucca whipplei, Baccharis pilularis, Quercus wislizeni, Quercus dumosa, Rhus ovata, and Heteromeles arbutifolia. Emergent Pinus coulteri may be present.
