Available at: http://scholarship.claremont.edu/aliso/vol10/iss2/10 ALISO 10(2), 1982 , pp. 313-320 NEW RECORDS OF VASCULAR PLANTS FROM THE SANTA MONICA MOUNTAINS, CALIFORNIA, AND ADJACENT PARTS OF LOS ANGELES AND VENTURA COUNTIES Michael H. Grayum and Daryl L. Koutnik Abstract.-Thirty-one species of vascular plants, 16 of them indigenous, are reported for the first time from the Santa Monica Mountains. Six of these records establish major disjunctions in the overall range of the species concerned, and are thus of considerable biogeographical interest. New in­ formation is presented for nine additional species from these mountains, and five significant collections are recorded from other parts of Los Angeles and Ventura counties. Geranium rotundifolium, Lupinus luteus, and Glinus radiatus are reported as adventive for the first time from California; Lewisia rediviva var. rediviva is reported as new to southern California. In addition to the above, Hieracium argutum ssp. argutum, Eriogonum citharaeforme, Allium lacunosum, Calystegia malacophylla , and Marah fabaceus are re­ ported for the first time from Los Angeles County, and Dichondra occiden­ talis, Navarretia pubescens, and Poa f endleriana are reported as new to Ventura County.
