Of conservation concern. Eriogonum cinereum occurs naturally along the Pacific Coast in Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and Ventura counties, and also on Santa Rosa Island. It is infrequently planted along highways (and is now found in San Diego County) and hybridizes with E. fasciculatum var. foliolosum. The species is the food plant of the Bernardino dotted-blue butterfly (Euphilotes bernardino). (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Eriogonum scabrellum is widely scattered along the Colorado and San Juan river systems. It occurs from Grand Valley of Utah (Grand County) and Colorado (Mesa County), southward to the Lake Powell region of Utah (Garfield and Kane counties), and then to the Four Corners area of Utah (San Juan County), Colorado (Montezuma County), and New Mexico (San Juan County). It recently was collected in Chaco Canyon National Park in New Mexico, and just south of the town of Green River in Emery County, Utah.
