Of conservation concern. Eriogonum nortonii is a rare and localized species restricted to the Gabilan Range of Monterey and San Benito counties, from Fremont Peak south to The Pinnacles. It is confined largely to two protected areas, the Hastings Natural History State Reservation and the Pinnacles National Monument. A disjunct population is found southeast of Carmel Highlands in the Santa Lucia Mountains of Monterey County. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Eriogonum terrenatum is confined to two geographically separate areas. Near Vail, Pima County, it is restricted to clayey outcrops of the Pantano Formation, whereas near Fairbanks, Cochise County, it is confined to the eroded, clay slopes and flats of the Saint David Formation.
