THE IUCN RED LIST OF THREATENED SPECIES™ Taxonomy Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Plantae Tracheophyta Magnoliopsida Juglandales Juglandaceae Taxon Name: Juglans californica S.Watson Common Name(s): • English: Northern California Black Walnut, Southern California Black Walnut Assessment Information Red List Category & Criteria: Vulnerable A1c ver 2.3 Year Published: 1998 Date Assessed: January 1, 1998 Annotations: Needs Updating Previously Published Red List Assessments 1998 – Rare (R) Geographic Range Range Description: The species may be divided into two varieties, vars. californica and hindsii, both endemic to California. Walnut forest is a much fragmented and declining habitat. There are just two or three stands remaining of var. hindsii, although it is widely naturalised in parts of California and was formerly cultivated as a rootstock for J. regia, with which it readily hybridizes.
