Extract

Considerable concern and confusion exists regarding the problem presented by the present occurrence and potential spread of halogeton (Halogeton glomeratus) (M. Beib) (C. A. May) in the United States. It is now 18 years since this weed was first found near Wells, Nevada. Since that time the plant has been reported from a broad region extending from Lassen county, California to the southern edge of Montana.
