No native habitat is present. There are no jurisdictional waters or wetlands. No special status plant species have been detected during surveys to date. Botanical surveys will continue through the flowering season in 2018. One (1) special status wildlife species, California horned lark, was observed foraging onsite. One (1) other special status wildlife species, loggerhead shrike, has moderate potential for occurrence, but has not been observed. No evidence of current burrowing owl occupation has been found on the project site to date; however, suitable mammal burrows were observed. Focused burrowing owl surveys will continue through the breeding season in 2018. No suitable habitat for Delhi sands flower-loving fly is present on the project site and no surveys for this species are recommended. Trees, vegetation, and structures suitable for nesting birds are present within and around the site. Recommended mitigation measures include a pre-construction burrowing owl clearance survey and pre-construction nesting bird survey. -

The 31St Annual Wildflower Hotline Brought to You by the Theodore
Welcome to the 31st Annual Wildflower Hotline brought to you by the Theodore Payne Foundation, a non-profit plant nursery, seed source, book store and education center dedicated to the preservation of wildflowers and California native plants. This a report for May 31, 2013—the last report of the season. Look for new reports starting up in March 2014. Meanwhile, keep your fingers crossed for rain and favorable temperatures for wildflower germination. A segment of the Pacific Crest Trail in the San Gabriel Mountains from Little Rock Creek Road to Three Points has a great diversity of flowering plants awaiting exploration by plant enthusiasts. Because of the dry year, the total number of these plants is low but the diversity is splendid. The winner of the sweetest little flower is the three lobe oxytheca (Sidotheca trilobata). You will see both a red paintbrush (Castilleja applegatei ssp. martinii) and a yellow paintbrush (C. plagiotoma) coloring the landscape. Challenge yourself to find everything on this checklist! There are blazing stars (Mentzelia congesta), splendid gilia, (Saltugilia splendens ssp. splendens), silver puffs (Uropappus lindleyi), scalebud (Anisocoma aculis), Mojave linanthus (Linanthus breviculus), santolina pincushion (Chaenactis santolinoides), rock buchwheat (Eriogonum saxatile), Fremont’s pincushion (Phacelia fremontii), chia (Salvia columbariae), oak violet (Viola purpurea var. quercetorum), canyon dudleya (Dudleya cymosa ssp. pumila) wallflower (Erysimum capitatum), common muilla (Muilla maritima), diamond-petaled clarkia (Clarkia rhomboidea), whispering bells, (Emmenanthe penduliflora), yellow pincushion (Chaenactis glabriuscula), white tidy tips (Layia glandulosa), ground smoke (Gayophytum diffusum), Mt. prickly phlox (Linanthus pungens), Davidson’s phacelia (Phacelia davidsonii) red-stem and narrow leaf miner’s lettuce (Claytonia parvifolia and C.
