Very tiny wildflower, Menodora scabra/Twinberry. Autumn 2019. Dedicated macro lens. My back porch. No crop. Nikon 55mm micro f2.8
Menodora scabra is broom-like shrub, known by the common name rough menodora or broom twinberry. It is native to the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, where it grows in varied mountain, plateau, and desert habitat. Native American Navajo people developed cold infusion of this plant to treat heartburn and facilitate labor for childbirth. A root decoction was used to treat spinal pain.
The inflorescence is a loose cluster of yellow flowers at the tip of a stem branch. flic.kr/p/2fseebo

spiny menodora, Menodora spinescens var. spinescens, California, White Mountains, Gilbert Pass, Deep Springs Valley drainage, elevation 1710 m (5615 ft).
The well-protected spiny menodora is one of more than two dozen shrub species forming the mixed desert shrub vegetation zone in this area, where it occupies the transition between the Great Basin sagebrush zone and the Mojave Desert. During drought conditions all that shows is the spiny network of green stems, which continue to photosynthesize without leaves or flowers.
The spination pattern and depressed habit of this species resembles two other unrelated (and much less common) shrub species of different habitats in this area: Glossopetalon spinescens (Crossosomataceae) and Polygala intermontana (Polygalaceae). Technically the spines of these species are actually thorns, being modified stem branches instead of modified leaf structures.

western Joshua tree, Yucca brevifolia, California, White Mountains, Wyman Canyon, Deep Springs Valley watershed, elevation 1838 m (6030 ft).
This iconic species of the Mojave Desert has recently been split in two, based on differences in pollinators and correlated flower shapes, and also in typical growth form, leaf length, etc. The western Joshua tree keeps the scientific name Yucca brevifolia, while the eastern species is now known as Yucca jaegeriana.
Western Joshua tree is distributed in the western Mojave desert of California and southwestern Nevada, while eastern Joshua tree is found in the eastern Mojave desert of eastern California, southeastern Nevada, southwestern Utah, and western Arizona. The two taxa have a narrow zone of overlap in Lincoln County of south-central Nevada.
The stand pictured here is one of the northernmost and highest elevation occurrences of western Joshua tree. Over the past 40 years I have been watching this colony slowly expand downhill from the largest individuals in the background, probably aided by recent climate warming. The size of the largest plants would suggest that they established here at least a century or two ago.

Lenz, L.W. 2007. Reassessment of Yucca brevifolia and recognition of Y. jaegeriana as a distinct species. Aliso 24: 97-104. Online: scholarship.claremont.edu/aliso/vol24/iss1/7
Also visible in these images are desert bitterbrush (Purshia glandulosa), Mojave Desert buckwheat (Eriogonum fasciculatum polifolium), Nevada Mormon tea (Ephedra nevadensis), cottonthorn (Tetradymia axillaris), spiny menodora (Menodora spinescens spinescens), whitestem stickleaf (Mentzelia albicaulis), desert needlegrass (Stipa speciosa), green rabbitbrush (Ericameria teretifolia), Cooper goldenbush (Ericameria cooperi cooperi)
yellow eyes, Lupinus flavoculatus, California, White Mountains, Deep Springs Valley drainage, elevation 1780 m (5840 ft).
A nice healthy patch in the abundant 2017 rain year. The name yellow eyes refers to the bright color patch on the banner of each flower.
This species is essentially endemic to the northeastern Mojave Desert of east-central California, southern Nevada, northwest Arizona, and southwest Utah, and extends barely into the adjacent southern Great Basin, reaching its northwestern limit here in the White Mountains.
This species is often confused with Mojave lupine (Lupinus odoratus, which grows nearby on the west slopes of the White Mountains), but it differs sharply in its spreading hairs (versus none), purple instead of royal blue flowers, and dark green instead of yellow-green leaves. It is sometimes also confused with shortstem lupine (Lupinus brevicaulis), which has short leafy stems (versus leaves all basal), and much shorter flowering stems scarcely or not exceeding the foliage.
Visible in this image too are Nevada Mormon tea (Ephedra nevadensis), spiny menodora (Menodora spinescens), Mojave aster (Xylorhiza tortifolia tortifolia), desert paintbrush (Castilleja chromosa), desert pincushion (Chaenactis stevioides), fiddlenecks (Amsinckia tesselata), yellowthroats (Phacelia fremontii), wingnut cryptantha (Cryptantha pterocarya), whitestem stickleaf (Mentzelia albicaulis), and desert purple mat (Nama demissa demissa).
Just outside this view are also boxthorn (Lycium andersonii), hopsage (Grayia spinosa), bush peppercress (Lepidium fremontii), and Cooper goldenbush (Ericameria cooperi cooperi).
spindlestem, Caulanthus crassicaulis var. crassicaulis, California, White Mountains, Deep Springs Valley drainage, elevation 2035 m (6675 ft).
This distinctive perennial mustard family member is essentially endemic to the Intermountain Region of the western United States (as defined in the Intermountain Flora series), extending shortly into the mountains of the northern Mojave Desert. It prefers sagebrush and pinyon-juniper vegetation up to about 3000 meters (10000 feet) elevation, and often grows up through the canopies of shrubs, in this case spiny menodora (Menodora spinescens).
intermountain milkwort, Polygala intermontana, Nevada, White Mountains, Montgomery Pass, Columbus Salt Marsh drainage, elevation 2402 m (7880 ft).
This is one of those virtually unnoticed, oddball shrubs that help make the desert such a fun place for botanists to explore. When not in flower, with their spiky green branches and narrow leaves, these low shrubs are easily mistaken for more common subshrubs like spiny menodora (Menodora spinescens) or Nevada greasebush (Glossopetalon spinescens). But one close look at the flowers and it is unmistakably a milkwort.
Intermountain milkwort is found in the mountains across the southern Great Basin and central Colorado Plateau, from eastern California to southeast Utah and northeast Arizona, mainly in the pinyon-juniper woodland zone on clay-rich soils up to about 3000 meters (10000 feet) elevation. It is distinguished from a similar, more southern species, thorny milkwort (Polygala acanthoclada) by its longer and hairless flower stalks and much less hairy leaves and flower parts.

It prefers sagebrush and pinyon-juniper vegetation up to about 3000 meters (10000 feet) elevation, and often grows up through the canopies of shrubs, in this case spiny menodora (Menodora spinescens). Also visible are yellowthroats (Phacelia fremontii).
Utah juniper, Juniperus osteosperma, California, White Mountains, Deep Springs Valley drainage, elevation 2079 m (6820 ft).
This is the common juniper of the Intermountain Region of the western United States, and is nearly confined to the Great Basin, Colorado Plateau, and adjacent northern Mojave Desert at elevations of 1300-2600 meters (4300-8600). Around the edges of this range, it can occasionally be hard to separate from surrounding species such as J. occidentalis, J. californica, and J. monosperma.
Utah juniper forms part of the familiar pinyon-juniper woodland vegetation in the mountains where it overlaps with singleleaf pinyon pine (Pinus monophylla) in the west, and with Colorado pinyon pine (Pinus edulis) in the eastern part of its range. Here near its southwestern limit, it tends to prefer a lower elevation band (especially in carbonate rock areas) than the more cold-tolerant singleleaf pinyon pine, and so can dominate the lowest edges of the pinyon-juniper zone, while pinyon pine becomes the only tree at the higher elevations, up to almost 3000 meters (10000 feet) on favorable sites. In some of the higher Great Basin valleys to the northeast, Utah Juniper will extend down onto the valley floors as a pure juniper woodland.
Also visible in this image are singleleaf pinyon pine (Pinus monophylla), spiny menodora (Menodora spinescens), yellowthroats (Phacelia fremontii), and black sagebrush (Artemisia nova).
Northwestern bajada of the Robledo Mountains, east of the junction of Faulkner Canyon and Indian Springs Canyon, 32.44073 -106.95373, Doña Ana County, New Mexico, 25 Nov 2015. Creosote, mariola, and eastern whitethorn acacia shrubland, with Rhus microphylla, Yucca baccata, Bahia absinthifolia, Gutierrezia microcephala, Parthenium incanum, Thymophylla acerosa, Thymophylla pentachaeta, Tiquilia canescens, Tiquilia gossypina, Opuntia macrocentra, Dalea formosa, Vachellia vernicosa, Linum vernale, Cyphomeris gypsophiloides, Menodora scabra, Dasyochloa pulchella, Tridens muticus, Larrea tridentata, etc.
Nevada greasebush, Glossopetalon spinescens var. aridum, California, White Mountains, Deep Springs Valley drainage, elevation 2021 m (6630 ft).
This common but inconspicuous desert shrub likes rocky soils and outcrops, with a strong preference for carbonate rocks, at elevations up to at least 2700 meters (9000 feet). The variety here, called Nevada greasebush, occurs from the Mojave Desert and adjacent mountains, northward east of the Sierra Nevada and Cascade ranges to southeastern Washington. Except when it is flowering, it resembles several other spiny desert shrub species with green, often nearly leafless stems, such as spiny menodora (Menodora spinescens), that grow in the same regions. But the details of the flowers and fruit confirm its membership in the small Crabapple Bush Family (Crossosomataceae), which is found only in southwestern North America.

desert mariposa, Calochortus kennedyi var. kennedyi in habitat, White Mountains, Payson Canyon fan in Deep Springs Valley, elevation 1765 m (5785 ft). 2008 was one of the wettest springs in decades in this area, which is what it takes to bring out the mariposas in full glory. Though long known from the southeast margin of the White Mountains, this species was unfortunately overlooked and omitted from the Intermountain Flora series, along with another brilliantly flowered species, scarlet loco (Astragalus coccineus). Rare omissions from one of the best floras ever published.
Also visible in this diverse mixed-shrub vegetation are spiny Menodora (Menodora spinescens), Nevada Mormon tea (Ephedra nevadensis), budsage (Artemisia spinescens), hopsage (Grayia spinosa), Shockley goldenheads (Acamptopappus shockleyi, bright yellow in photo), boxthorn (Lycium andersonii), beavertail cactus (Opuntia basilaris), Mojave aster (Xylorhiza tortifolia, lavender in middle distance), pinyon rabbitbrush (Chrysothamnus viscidiflorus ssp. puberulus), Cooper goldenbush (Ericameria cooperi), bush peppercress (Lepidium fremontii), silver cholla (Cylindropuntia echinocarpa), desert paintbrush (Castilleja chromosa), Indian ricegrass (Stipa hymenoides), and more.
