	Ironwood Information
		Ironwood is one of the largest and longest-lived Sonoran Desert plants, reaching 45 feet in height and persisting as long as 1,500 years.
		Ironwoods function as oases of fertile and sheltered habitat within a harsh and challenging desert landscape.
		Ironwood flowers are pollinated by native bees and used as medicine.

	Biological Survey of Ironwood Forest National Monument
		Ironwoods must be protected both to maintain the diversity and lushness of the Sonoran Desert communities they inhabit and to maintain the regeneration dynamics of rare plant populations that grow under its canopies.
		Ironwood trees are abundant in some washes, while adjacent ones only half a mile away are dominated by mesquite or blue palo verde and nearly or completely devoid of ironwoods.
		The old ironwood stump that died several centuries ago may be a grandparent of the 200-year-old tree in the background, which may in turn be a parent of the two-week-old seedling in the foreground.

	Desert Ironwood Primer - Executive Summary
		Ironwood functions as a habitat modifying keystone species, that is, a species that exhibits strong influences on the distribution and abundance of associated species.
		Ironwood generates a chain of influences on associated understory plants, affecting their dispersal, germination, establishment, and rates of growth as well as reproduction.
		Ironwood grows in mixed stands with mesquite and is cut down as an illegal "by-catch" in much the same way tuna nets kill dolphins and other species, though its harvest is usually intentional rather than accidental.
