click to update datacart
Name: Pinus jeffreyi / Quercus vacciniifolia - Garrya buxifolia Woodland Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This woodland is restricted to a narrow area of serpentine habitat in southwestern Oregon and potentially northwestern California. These woodlands are found entirely at low to mid elevations (averaging 636 m or 3070 feet), on stony (51% cover of surface rock) serpentine or peridotite soils. Aspects tend to be south to southeast, and the slope ranges from 8-35%, but stands are found from ridgetops to draws. It is an open woodland, dominated by <i>Pinus jeffreyi</i> at about 20% cover in the canopy, and generally the only tree species found in the canopy and understory. Individuals of <i>Pseudotsuga menziesii, Pinus attenuata, Pinus monticola</i>, and <i>Umbellularia californica</i> are found as understory species at low cover in most stands. These woodlands are characterized by their dense cover of evergreen, broad-leaved shrubs. <i>Quercus vacciniifolia, Garrya buxifolia, Arctostaphylos nevadensis</i>, and <i>Mahonia repens</i> are found in all sampled stands. Forbs are minor components of these stands, with <i>Xerophyllum tenax, Aspidotis densa</i>, and <i>Whipplea modesta</i> reported.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:32329-{6535E037-4B05-4A80-84C2-3407F9261391} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
