  • Plant Guide for California Oatgrass
    Plant Guide moist lowland prairies as well as open woodlands. CALIFORNIA Therefore, it is commonly recommended for revegetation, wildlife plantings, and restoration of OATGRASS oak savannas, transitional wetlands, and grasslands, especially in the Pacific Coast states where it is most Danthonia californica common. Bolander Plant Symbol = DACA3 Native bunchgrasses like California oatgrass are valuable for enhancing biodiversity. Healthy stands Contributed by: NRCS Plant Materials Center, can reduce invasion by exotic species yet exhibit a Corvallis, Oregon spatial distribution compatible with forbs (Maslovat 2001). Combined with other native grasses and forbs, California oatgrass improves habitat diversity for feeding, nesting, and hiding by songbirds (Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife 2000), as well as other animals. The grains are eaten by small birds and mammals (Mohlenbrock 1992). Prairies with California oatgrass as a definitive species are also unique refuges for other endemic organisms. For example, the Ohlone tiger beetle (Cicindela ohlone) is an endangered (federally listed) predatory insect known only to five remnant stands of California native grassland in Santa Cruz County (Santa Cruz Public Libraries 2003). These rare grasslands, including the coastal terrace prairies, remain biodiversity “hotspots” and are considered in need of protection (Stromberg et al. 2001). Forage: As a rangeland plant, California oatgrass is well utilized by livestock and certain wildlife. Prior to maturity, the species is rated as good to very good forage for cattle and horses in the Pacific Coast states, but less palatable for sheep and goats. Ratings are lower for eastern, drier portions of its natural range (USDA Forest Service 1988). Others claim it is palatable to all classes of livestock and a mainstay grass for range grazing in places like Humboldt County, California (Cooper 1960).

  • UC Santa Cruz Campus Grasslands Management Guidelines & Protection Prioritization Recommendations
    UC Santa Cruz Campus Grasslands Management Guidelines & Protection Prioritization Recommendations Justin Luong, M.A. [email protected] Advised by: Dr. Karen Holl [email protected] June 25, 2020 Executive Summary UC Santa Cruz has unique grasslands that support high plant diversity and endangered species and are highly valued by campus communities. California’s climate is dynamic and plant communities respond accordingly. As such, grassland managers should seek to adaptively manage meadows depending on annual weather patterns. Managers should also consider which management practices may be most suitable to different grasslands depending on varying cover of different plant lifeforms or sensitive species. Adaptive management prescriptions have been provided to promote both native plant diversity and cover and Ohlone Tiger Beetle habitat suitability, under varying rainfall patterns. UC Santa Cruz should invest more into campus stewardship and create an ecological restoration unit which will further improve campus sustainability goals and decrease natural resource management and mitigation costs for future expansion of the developed campus. Future increased enrollment goals of the University of California Office of the President will require additional student housing and support buildings, which in turn may require compensatory mitigation and protection in areas with sensitive habitat types or listed species. Several areas, especially Marshall Fields, Mima Meadow and Great Meadow, have been indicated as important areas for protection in this plan. This project and document were developed from funding support from the 2019-2020 Chancellor’s Graduate Internship Program at University of California, Santa Cruz. 1 Luong UC Santa Cruz Campus Grassland Management Plan UC Santa Cruz Sustainability, Enrollment and Long-Range Development Goals The University of California is committed to increasing enrollment at all campuses in order to meet rising demands for higher education in California (University of California 2008).

    Ohlone tiger beetle (Cicindela ohlone) 5-Year Review: Summary and Evaluation Photograph by Richard A. Arnold U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Ventura Fish and Wildlife Office Ventura, California November 2009 5-YEAR REVIEW Ohlone tiger beetle (Cicindela ohlone) I. GENERAL INFORMATION Purpose of 5-Year Reviews: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is required by section 4(c)(2) of the Endangered Species Act (Act) to conduct a status review of each listed species at least once every 5 years. The purpose of a 5-year review is to evaluate whether or not the species’ status has changed since it was listed (or since the most recent 5-year review). Based on the 5-year review, we recommend whether the species should be removed from the list of endangered and threatened species, be changed in status from endangered to threatened, or be changed in status from threatened to endangered. Our original listing of a species as endangered or threatened is based on the existence of threats attributable to one or more of the five threat factors described in section 4(a)(1) of the Act, and we must consider these same five factors in any subsequent consideration of reclassification or delisting of a species. In the 5-year review, we consider the best available scientific and commercial data on the species, and focus on new information available since the species was listed or last reviewed. If we recommend a change in listing status based on the results of the 5-year review, we must propose to do so through a separate rule-making process defined in the Act that includes public review and comment.
