This plant is in the rose family and is found within five counties of Nevada and California along the transition zone between the eastern edge of the northern Sierra and the northwestern edge of the Great Basin. Invasive, nonnative plant species, wildfire, off-highway vehicle use, development, livestock grazing, and climate change pose challenges to recovery. Credit: Nathan Hurner/USbet365下载ios
