Ephedra nevadensis

''Ephedra nevadensis'' (Nevada ephedra) is a species of ''Ephedra'' native to dry areas of western North America.
Its range extends west to California and Oregon, east to Texas, and south to Baja California, including areas of the Great Basin, Colorado plateau and desert Southwest. It is found in rocky and sandy soils, generally in areas without trees.〔(Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families, ''Ephedra nevadensis'' S. Watson )〕〔(Biota of North America Program, 2013 county distribution map )〕〔(Flora of North America, ''Ephedra nevadensis'' S. Watson, Proc. Amer. Acad. Arts. 14: 298. 1879. )〕
More than other North American ''Ephedra'' species, it is a significant forage plant. It is grazed upon by mule deer (''Ococolius hemionus''), pronghorn (''Antilocapra americana''), and Desert Bighorn Sheep (''Ovis canadensis'') as well as domestic sheep.
==Uses==
Nevada ephedra was used for food and medicine by indigenous people and for tea by Mormons. Currently, its biggest use is as forage for sheep and cattle (it is not as good for horses), and for habitat restoration. It is sometimes grown for ornamental purposes.〔 Among the Zuni people an infusion of the whole plant, except for the root, taken for syphilis.〔Stevenson, Matilda Coxe 1915 Ethnobotany of the Zuni Indians. SI-BAE Annual Report #30 (p. 49)〕 They also use it to make a tea-like beverage.〔Stevenson, p.67〕
