Taxonomic Comments
This record is for Juniperus communis in a narrower sense than earlier treatments (FNA 1993a, Kartesz 1994, Adams 2008b), which included material once recognized as Juniperus communis var. jackii (Adams 2008b) but now as a distinct species, Juniperus jackii (Adams 2018). Juniperus jackii is found in northwestern California, the Cascade Mountains of Oregon, and the Olympic Mountains of Washington in the United States (Adams 2018). Juniperus communis occurs across the northern hemisphere with many varieties, five of which are currently recognized in the United States and Canada to include: var. charlottensis, var. communis, var. depressa, var. kelleyi (recently split from var. saxatilis), and var. megistocarpa (Adams 2018).
