|phenology=Capsules mature Jan–Jul.
|habitat=Sandy soil or rocks, along dry washes, in open or shaded places in deserts
|elevation=moderate elevations (400-600 m)
|distribution=B.C.;Ariz.;Calif.;Nev.;N.Mex.;Mexico (Baja California);Europe (France;Spain;Switzerland).
|discussion=<p>The leaf cells with several papillae on either free surface distinguish <i>Crossidium seriatum</i> from <i>C. aberrans</i>. A poorly preserved specimen from Kansas is perhaps a juvenile form with awned leaves and reduced filaments.</p>
