Threats: Threatened by logging and related activities, livestock grazing and trampling, hydrologic changes, water diversions, habitat loss, road and utility line maintenance, recreational activities and foot traffic, off-road vehicles, wildfire and fuel reduction projects, non-native plants, disturbance associated with riparian or meadow enhancement. Possibly threatened by alteration of fire regimes and extirpation due to small population size. |
|
|
Taxonomy: Evidently an allotetraploid species (n = 90) from a cross between B. neolunaria and B. “farrarii” ined. (both diploids with n = 45). Similar to B. crenulatum which is more delicate, has fewer pinna pairs and a diploid chromosome number (n = 45). |
