Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The open grass-dominated vegetation, burned and unburned, in the Jarbidge Mountains is dominated by, left to right, mountain brome (Bromus carinatus), Sandberg bluegrass (Poa secunda), slender wheatgrass (Agropyron trachycaulum), Columbia needlegrass (Stipa nelsonii), scattered patches of basin wildrye (Elymus cinereus), Idaho fescue (Festuca idahoensis), and the introduced Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis). Native shrub diversity includes mountain big sagebrush Artemisia tridentata vaseyana), green rabbitbrush (Chrysothamnus viscidiflorus), mountain snowberry (Symphoricarpos oreophilus), serviceberry (Amelanchier alnifolia), and horsebrush (Tetradymia canescens). Native forb diversity includes showy fleabane (Erigeron speciosus), tapertip hawksbeard (Crepis acuminata), arrowleaf balsamroot (Balsamorhiza sagittata), mule-ears (Wyethia amplexicaulis), oneflower helianthella (Helianthella uniflora), parsnipflower buckwheat (Eriogonum heracleoides), and Jessica sticktight (Hackelia micrantha). The abundance and diversity of native plants at all elevations in this region, which is off-limits to livestock grazing, provides yet another example of how excluding grazing by cows and sheep does not result in the development of a monoculture of something like crested wheatgrass (which occurs in this area but is not abundant). |
