3-Web LT Plant List Wild Plants of Las Trampas Regional Wilderness Grouped by Growth Form Alphabetical by Scientific Name September 5, 2003 Wild Plants of Las Trampas Regional Wilderness Grouped by Growth Form Alphabetical by Scientific Name This document contains a comprehensive list of the wild plants reported to be found in Las Trampas Regional Wilderness. The plants are grouped according to their growth form for easy accessibility. These four groups are: Ferns & Horsetails, Grasses & Grasslike, Herbaceous, and Woody. The plants within each group are listed alphabetically by scientific name. Other information on each plant includes the common name, family, whether the plant is native or introduced, and its longevity. For quick reference, the upper left corner of each page displays both the group name (based on growth form) and the genus of the first scientific name. The abbreviations used: Checklist column for marking off the plants you observe Scientific Name According to The Jepson Manual: Higher Plants of California, 1993 Common Name According to Jepson and other references (highly variable) Family The scientific plant family name according to Jepson L Longevity: Annual (a), Biennial (b), Perennial (p), or a combination N/I Native (n) or Introduced (i) according to Jepson The listing of plants included in this document is by no means complete. The intent is to maintain an ongoing inventory to which additional plants can be added over time. Readers are encouraged to report any corrections or additions to this list by emailing the District Botanist (Wilde Legard, [email protected]). This welcomed assistance will help facilitate improved management of the Park District’s natural resources.

College Avenue Claremont, Calif. 91711 ABSTRACT The Liebre Mountains form a discrete unit of the Transverse Ranges of southern California. Geo­ graphically, the range is transitional to the San Gabriel Mountains, Inner Coast Ranges, Tehachapi Mountains, and Mojave Desert. A total of 1010 vascular plant taxa was recorded from the range, representing 104 families and 400 genera. The ratio of native vs. nonnative elements of the flora is 4:1, similar to that documented in other areas of cismontane southern California. The range is note­ worthy for the diversity of Quercus and oak-dominated vegetation. A total of 32 sensitive plant taxa (rare, threatened or endangered) was recorded from the range.

  • Rare Plants of Santa Barbara County
    Rare Plants of Santa Barbara County Central Coast Center for Plant Conservation Santa Barbara Botanic Garden (SBBG) 1212 Mission Canyon Rd, Santa Barbara 93105 The purpose of this list is to bring attention to those vascular plant taxa with a limited distribution in Santa Barbara County, irrespective of their status, whether they are common elsewhere or whether they are considered imperiled, threatened, or endangered by resource management agencies. This list was prepared from records maintained as part of a specimen-based database at the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden. It includes plants from the mainland and four California Channel Islands (Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz, Santa Rosa, and San Miguel). Records were primarily acquired from verified herbarium specimens deposited at several herbaria, including the University of California at Berkeley (JEPS, UC), the California Academy of Sciences (CAS, DS), the University of California at Santa Barbara (UCSB), and the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden (SBBG). Additional records were acquired from peer-reviewed publications and professional reports that refer to specimens at other herbaria or verified observations (e.g., California Natural Diversity Database). Nomenclature follows The Jepson Manual (Baldwin et al., 2012), except for addenda published on the Jepson Herbarium Online Interchange (ucjeps.berkeley.edu/jepson_flora_project.html) and recent scientific publications (e.g., Flora of North America, 1999-2007, Oxford University Press). Additional information, including nomenclature and distributional records based on documented specimens, can be accessed on the Jepson Herbarium Online Interchange. Occurrences. Any two documented locations that were estimated to be more than 1 km apart are considered to represent separate “occurrences”. Only those species, subspecies, and varieties represented by 1-8 documented natural occurrences in Santa Barbara County are listed here.
