Name: Adenostoma fasciculatum - Arctostaphylos glandulosa - Ceanothus jepsonii / Calamagrostis ophitidis Shrubland
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This shrubland association is currently only known from Point Reyes National Seashore in California, and the following description is based on occurrences there. Additional information will be added as it becomes available. This association is found on rocky convex/ rounded ridgetops with southeast to south-southwest aspects. Slopes are 10-15°. Soil textures typically occur on moderately fine clay loam of ultramafic (serpentine) parent material. Stands typically lie above the average summer fog layer. This shrubland can vary in shrub structure ranging from 0.5 to 5 m tall, and the dominant species can vary in percent cover (e.g., <i>Adenostoma fasciculatum</i> can range from 20-70% cover). This association is dominated by <i>Adenostoma fasciculatum</i>. <i>Arctostaphylos glandulosa, Ceanothus jepsonii</i>, and /or <i>Calamagrostis ophitidis, Heteromeles arbutifolia, Eriodictyon californicum</i> are also in this association. Other species may include <i>Iris douglasiana, Monardella</i> sp., <i>Poa secunda, Chlorogalum pomeridianum, Vulpia myuros, Aira caryophyllea, Madia exigua</i>, and <i>Agrostis hallii</i>.
