Nevada sunray, Enceliopsis nudicaulis var. nudicaulis (30022377107)
Description:
Description: Nevada sunray, Enceliopsis nudicaulis var. nudicaulis, California, White Mountains, McAfee Creek, Fishlake Valley drainage, elevation 1690 m (5545 ft). This tidy member of the sunflower family is found nearly throughout Nevada and the Great Basin desert of the western United States, extending shortly into the adjacent northern Mojave Desert, Colorado Plateau of Utah and northern Arizona, and Snake River plains of southern Idaho. It seems to have a strong preference for dry barren calcareous soils of various textures from rocky to mostly clay, below about 2100 meters (6900 feet) elevation. The substrate here is steep scree of decaying carbonate outcrops. Also identifiable in this image are Nevada Mormon tea (Ephedra nevadensis) and desert trumpet (Eriogonum inflatum).
