Discussion
Parapholis strigosa has been found in disturbed areas of Humboldt Bay, California, and has also been reported from Del Norte, Mendicino, and Sonoma counties. It grows on moist soils above normal high tides, usually in well-compacted sandy loams. In general, it is found in less saline soils and at higher elevations than P. incurva.
