El. 1148 ft/350m, flat areas with Hyptis, Psorothamnus schottii, some creosote bush and smoke trees, locally abundant in disturbed places. Mar. 18, 1997, J. Wear and N. Moorhatch s.n. (UCR), det. by A.C. Sanders: Notes: First records for California and North America of this annual Stipa with long awns and sharp callus tips. This species will be a severe nuisance if it becomes widely established. The seeds readily become caught in the fur of dogs and other animals and so will probably create veterinary problems, and will certainly be subject to ready dispersal. The very sharp callus can easily pierce human skin and cause unpleasant sores. This plant is obviously a Stipa in the broad sense, but its distinctly annual habit will quickly distinguish it from all other known Californian Stipeae. Acc. to M. Barkworth, in the narrow taxonomic sense this plant is an Achnatherum, but the published combination in that genus by P. Beauv (Essai Agrostogr. 146) is invalid, having as its basionym Milium capense L. and not Stipa capensis Thunb. Thus, in Achnatherum there is not currently an available epithet. | |||||
| Initial Editorial Comments | according to Hrusa et al., in California naturalized in wildlands, in DSon (Coachella Valley) (28 Feb 2003); in The Jepson Manual [Ed. 1], California members of Stipa treated in Achnatherum, but according to Mary Barkworth [The Jepson Manual [Ed. 1] author of Achnatherum], as reported by Hrusa et al., the existing combination in that genus, Achnatherum capense P. Beauv (Essai Agrostogr. 146), is invalid. | |||||
