Name: Cardaria draba - Centaurea spp. - Lepidium latifolium Ruderal Perennial Forb Alliance Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This interior western U.S. ruderal perennial herbaceous alliance is strongly dominated (&gt;90% relative canopy cover) by invasive, exotic perennial forbs such as <i>Acroptilon repens, Cardaria draba, Centaurea calcitrapa, Centaurea diffusa, Centaurea iberica, Centaurea stoebe ssp. micranthos, Centaurea virgata, Euphorbia esula, Hypericum perforatum, Lepidium latifolium, Linaria dalmatica, Linaria vulgaris, Peganum harmala</i>, or a mixture of other exotic perennial forbs.

It is an early-successional type that may occur in areas disturbed by fire, grazing or mining.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:38542-{267F7C55-1377-4ED9-8CA3-47AF417566D9} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
