Name: Quercus john-tuckeri - Quercus cornelius-mulleri - Fremontodendron californicum Chaparral Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This chaparral alliance is characterized by evergreen scrub oak species and other sclerophyllous shrubs. Dominant diagnostic species include <i>Ceanothus greggii, Fremontodendron californicum, Juniperus californica, Quercus cornelius-mulleri</i>, or <i>Quercus john-tuckeri</i>. Many other chaparral species may be present. Some emergent trees may be present, but they are not common. This vegetation type generally intergrades with other chaparral types or pinyon-juniper woodlands. This alliance occurs from arid, interior southern California and adjacent Mojave and Colorado deserts to the east. Stands occur primarily on upper slopes and ridgetops with shallow, well-drained soils. The elevation ranges from 300-1700 m, and yearly precipitation totals are generally less than 30 cm. Droughts are common.
