click to update datacart
Name: Danthonia californica - Festuca rubra Grassland Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: A perennial grassland dominated by <i>Danthonia californica</i> and <i>Festuca rubra</i>. Diagnostic species include <i>Deschampsia holciformis</i> and <i>Calamagrostis nutkaensis</i>. This association occurs along the coastal regions of California and Oregon with cool, dry summers and mild, wet winters. Formerly fairly widespread, this association formed a finely textured mosaic with forest, scrub and other grassland types. Invading exotics and extensive grazing have degraded this association throughout its range, reducing it to a handful of occurrences.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:30506-{99B3E9C1-6D63-471B-979C-C6974B0825F3} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
