Name: Malacothamnus fasciculatus - Malacothamnus spp. Scrub Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This shrubland alliance includes stands dominated by <i>Malacothamnus aboriginum, Malacothamnus densiflorus, Malacothamnus fasciculatus</i>, and/or <i>Malacothamnus fremontii</i> in post-fire settings. Stands occur in central to southern California below 700 m (2300 feet) in elevation on gentle to steep hillslopes. Soils are rocky gravels to loams and mineral clays. Stands of these shrubs have developed from many types of chaparral and coastal sage scrub after recent fires. The shrubs quickly form a seedbank in soil and duff within the first year of germination and die-off within 10-15 years after fire.
