For example, the impact of fire on Baccharis vanessae is not fully understood, yet a 1,200 ha (3,000 ac) fire in the Del Dios highlands burned four of the known populations in September 1990 (CDFG 1992, Los Angeles Times 1992).
Baccharis vanessae is limited to small numbers, comprising only 14 extant populations containing about 2,000 individuals.
One of these four taxa (Baccharis vanessae) is known to occur on lands under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Forest Service and populations of the taxa may potentially be discovered on lands under the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense (Navy).
