Name: Prunus ilicifolia - Fraxinus dipetala Shrubland
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: Described only from the Central Coast Ranges of California, this shrubland occurs on moderate to steep north- and northeast-facing slopes with elevations between 348 and 627 m (1141-2057 feet). Stands occupy sandy soils on volcanic, fanglomerate, and igneous substrates. In this association, the overstory shrub layer is codominated by <i>Prunus ilicifolia ssp. ilicifolia</i> and <i>Fraxinus dipetala</i>. The climbing vine <i>Clematis lasiantha</i> is often present, overtopping the taller shrubs. The understory herbaceous layer may include the forbs <i>Anthriscus caucalis, Galium porrigens var. porrigens, Marah fabaceus</i>, and <i>Pentagramma triangularis ssp. triangularis</i>, and the graminoid <i>Bromus rubens (= Bromus madritensis ssp. rubens)</i>.
