These taxa had been grouped and regrouped into various species as well as subgenera or genera based on morphology for over a century. Allan & Porter (2000) analyzed DNA (ITS and nuclear ribosomal DNA), geographic, and morphological data for more than 45 taxa of Lotus together with additional related taxa of Loteae and found several geographically distinct lineages.

  • Woody Plants at Jasper Ridge, by Toni Corelli
    Woody Plants at Jasper Ridge, by Toni Corelli An overview of the Jasper Ridge (JR) vegetation communities map (2012) shows a majority of the landscape dominated by woody plant communities including chaparral (Birch leaf mountain mahogany, California sagebrush scrub, Chamise chaparral, Coyote brush scrub, Leather oak chaparral, Poison oak scrub), and woodland (Blue oak woodland, California bucheye groves, Coast live oak woodland, Douglas fir forest, redwood forest, Riparian scrub and forest, Shining willow groves, Valley oak). Our non-woodland communities take up less space on the vegetation map and include the California annual and perennial grassland, and Cattail marsh. The herbaceous plant life forms include annuals, biennials, and herbaceous perennials (non- woody). JR woody plant life forms can be grouped into trees, shrubs, subshrubs, woody vines: • trees have one erect trunk and have a height of 4 meters (~13 feet) or more • shrubs are multistemmed at the base and are mostly shorter than 4 meters • subshrubs are shrub-like, the lower stems are somewhat woody, the upper stems and twigs are less woody; the plant may die back seasonally (e.g. blue witch, golden-yarrow, sticky monkeyflower) • vines are trailing or climbing woody plants (e.g. Clematis spp. and hairy honeysuckle) The total number of vouchered plants classified as woody plants at JR is 126. This represents 16% of the 787 vouchered plants that are listed in the JR vascular plant list. However, the number of vouchered herbaceous plant species, 661, or 84% far outnumbers the woody plant species at JR. As shown in the table the percentages for the Santa Cruz Mts.
