Name: Leymus condensatus Grassland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association is only known from the Santa Monica Mountains region. However, it is likely to occur sporadically throughout central and southern coastal California. This herbaceous association occurs on somewhat steep to steep, often northerly slopes at low elevations between 25 and 503 m. It is dominated by <i>Leymus condensatus</i> in the herbaceous layer, though sometimes non-native species can codominate with this native grass. <i>Salvia leucophylla</i> is usually found in the shrub layer at low cover, and <i>Juglans californica, Quercus agrifolia</i>, and <i>Sambucus nigra ssp. cerulea</i> infrequently occur in the tree or tall-shrub layer at low cover.
