Name: Ceanothus thyrsiflorus - Baccharis pilularis - Toxicodendron diversilobum Shrubland
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: Stands of this shrubland occur from the central California coast to Oregon and inland to the lower elevations of the Klamath ranges. It is likely that this association occurs along the coastal strip of northern and central California and as far south as central Monterey County. This is a low-elevation scrub tied to foggy coasts. It occurs within the main distribution of the ~<i>Baccharis pilularis</i> Shrubland Alliance (A0836)$$ and is usually within sight of the ocean. At Point Reyes National Seashore, this vegetation includes stands codominated by <i>Ceanothus thyrsiflorus</i> and <i>Rubus ursinus</i> with 35-100% cover provided by the two dominant species. <i>Baccharis pilularis</i> and <i>Toxicodendron diversilobum</i> fill out the shrub canopy. The canopy is between 1-2 m in height, but emergent individuals may be present. <i>Pteridium aquilinum</i> and a wide variety of herbaceous species contribute minor cover.
