Name: Quercus chrysolepis / Dryopteris arguta Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This forest association is currently only known from Yosemite National Park in California, and the following description is based on occurrences there. Additional information will be added as it becomes available. Stands of this forest are found at low elevations (823-1372 m [2700-4500 feet]) on the mid to upper portions of linear, concave, and undulating, southwest- to north-facing, moderate to steep (15-40°) slopes. Soils tend to be poorly developed with some exposed bedrock, large rocks, and small rocks. Soil textures are usually sandy loam but range from sandy loam to loam and are of igneous, granitic parent material. Drainage is somewhat poor to rapidly draining. Litter ranges from 40-77% cover. Disturbance at these sites tends to be low.
