HABITAT 



1. ASSOCIATED VEGETATION: Clavtonia lanceolata var. 

 f lava occurs in moist meadows and poorly drained 

 swales at relatively high elevations. The 

 associated vegetation is dominated by grasses and 

 perennial forbs. Associated species observed in 

 1988 include: 



Aqropyron caninum (slender wheatgrass) 

 Arabis nuttallii (Nuttall's rockcress) 

 Artemisia cana (silver sagebrush) 

 Camassia quamash (common camas) 

 Danthonia intermedia (timber danthonia) 

 Deschampsia cespitosa (tufted hair-grass) 

 Dodecatheon conjugens (slimpod shooting star) 

 Festuca scabrella (rough fescue) 

 Geum triflorum (old man's whiskers) 

 Lomatium cous (Cous biscuit root) 

 Mertensia lonqiflora (small bluebells) 

 Microseris nigrescens (black-hairy microseris) 

 Polygonum bistortoides (American bistort) 

 Potentilla diversifolia (diverse-leaved 



cinquefoil) 

 Potentilla fruticosa (shrubby cinquefoil) 

 Ranunculus alismaefolius (dwarf plainleaf 



buttercup) 

 Saxifraqa rhomboidea (diamondleaf saxifrage) 

 Senecio foetidus (sweet-marsh butterweed) 

 Wyethia helianthoides (whiteheaded Wyethia) 



At three locations, C. lanceolata var. lanceolata 

 was found growing in close proximity to var. 

 flava: Lockhart Meadows (001) , French Creek 

 (002), and Vipond Park (003). However, there 

 appears to be a difference in the habitats usually 

 occupied by the two varieties. Variety lanceolata 

 often occurs on fairly well-drained, open areas of 

 loamy to gravelly soil, sometimes on rather steep 

 slopes or along intermittent drainages. Variety 

 flQva generally prefers level to gently sloping 

 meadows with dense vegetation, often in large 

 basins or areas of outwash sediments. These
