Name: Aesculus californica Woodland Alliance Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: <i>Aesculus californica</i> is the dominant or important species in the tree layer and can attain tree size due to the low fire frequency. Other trees present may include <i>Fraxinus dipetala, Pinus sabiniana, Prunus ilicifolia, Quercus douglasii, Quercus wislizeni</i>, and <i>Umbellularia californica</i>. Shrubs may include <i>Diplacus aurantiacus, Frangula californica, Heteromeles arbutifolia</i>, and <i>Toxicodendron diversilobum</i>. The herbaceous layer is sparse. This woodland alliance occurs at elevations between 100 to 1500 m in cismontane California and requires shallow, excessively drained soils on steep, north-facing slopes. Stands are small and often occur in relatively mesic concavities inland or on steep lower to mid slopes in more coastal areas.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:39334-{FC071E84-6D98-4C29-BBE8-C5DC830F143D} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
