Revision as of 19:26, 16 December 2019

Subshrubs, 20–70 cm. Stems glabrous or minutely hispidulous. Leaves: basal absent at flowering; cauline blades 1-nerved, filiform to linear, 0.5–1(–1.3) mm wide, reduced distally, often reduced in arrays to tiny, curved bracts. Heads borne singly or (sometimes subsessile and in clusters of 2–3) in loose arrays. Involucres turbinate to cylindric-turbinate (longer than diams.), 2.5–4 mm diam. Phyllary apices flat. Ray florets 4–13; corollas yellow, 2.5–7 mm. Disc florets (4–)6–13. Cypselae 2–2.8 mm, faces densely strigoso-sericeous; pappi of 1–2 series of lanceolate to oblanceolate scales 1.5–2.2 mm. 2n = 16, 24.


Phenology: Flowering Apr–Nov(–Dec).
Habitat: Grassland, chaparral, oak woods, alluvium, rocky slopes, sometimes over serpentine
Elevation: 100–400 m

Distribution

Calif., Mexico (Baja California).

Discussion

Following D. D. Keck (1960) and M. A. Lane (1985), Gutierrezia californica is treated here as a variable taxon that includes G. divergens. O. T. Solbrig (1965, 1970) considered G. californica to be a narrow endemic restricted to serpentine outcrops of the San Francisco Bay region, in which case the earliest name for the more widely distributed plants, including those of Mexico, is G. divergens Greene. Molecular evidence (Y. Suh and B. B. Simpson 1990) tentatively supports the recognition of the serpentine endemic; more detailed sampling would be needed for an objective decision. The morphologic differences are quantitative and overlapping. Intergrades between G. californica in the broad sense and G. sarothrae are said to occur in California (Lane 1993).
