Koford 288 Cynonyms ludovicianus September 29, 1955 Devil's Tower, NE Wyoming. Beda Primace Arist. ?, this situation being somewhat unfavorable for C.L. In SW part of main flat, green Aspalis, Vlar, Sol. tiffl., & Arten ericoides prunneit. About 10/A. in most of area. |Counted 20 C.L. in census area # 2, most lying in weedy rather than Aristida zone. In 1 A. near fence I counted 16. In weedy area where many dogs, about 5% Belat Aristida; much Plantago punebii, Iselip, pum., Applop., Eutropha arboria, Sphaeralcea, (white, blooming), Euph. geypii, Sol. tiffl.; 95% weeds. Zone of their Brown border on 1 side. A lawn spot well feet across nearly pure Androp. scop., but cut to only 6" (buy C.L.? ). A similar spot had no parts over 4" tall. Melilotum cut at about 5", so spreading habit. Probably feed on seeds or roots much now. On N. (upslope) side, about 50' belt where Plantago punebii dominant, then Aristida Much Plant. punch. cut at base as if root-eaten. In this area, 5 of flame calay left under 100'; then abrupt small 1-1½'tall Brown borders weedy zone. No expansion here this year. About 5 holes dug by badger this SW area (more probably Calay?). Fewer dog near display sign near road, 2 near road 200 yds. W. of origin, 4 about 5 at extreme W. Ext. main. All digging apparently in a series summers. 11 Where many dogs in census area # 2 (4 near road too, to N. of it), much Sphaeralcea crecivia, but many kinds of weeds. Cycles: no striking difference in composition inside & out. Main difference is lack of least down + trampled effect within, & Aristida, Indur- ica, Plantago, & other plants about 1/5 taller inside than out. Arist ida also has more seeds on plants in cycles (C.L. not?) Notably about 5 seeds to the Byr./'tall in Sphaeralcea - none apparent outside or in C.L. town in general. [illegible]
