Name: Baccharis pilularis - Artemisia californica Shrubland
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This shrubland association occurs on gentle to steep slopes of flat to variable aspect at low elevations between 2 and 547 m. It is characterized by a dominance of <i>Baccharis pilularis</i> and subdominance of <i>Artemisia californica</i> in the shrub layer. The herbaceous layer is more variable than the <i>Baccharis pilularis</i> / annual grass - herb association and tends to have more cover by tall exotic herbs such as <i>Brassica nigra</i> and <i>Foeniculum vulgare</i>. The emergent tree layer is generally absent but can include exotic ruderals such as <i>Schinus molle</i> and <i>Eucalyptus</i> spp., as well as the native <i>Quercus lobata</i> and <i>Quercus agrifolia</i>.
