Abstrakt:	Periodic collections of Atriplex confertifolia and Eurotia lanata leaf tissue throughout the growing season were analyzed for osmotic potential, water content, and concentration of Na+, K+, soluble Ca++, Cl-, and SO4-- ions. Ionic concentrations of these two species exhibited marked similarities to corresponding values for European members of the same genera. Atriplex confertifolia, like many other Atriplex species, behaves as an alkali halophyte and accumulates Na+, while E. lanata appears to favor accumulation of K+ as did its European counterpart, E. ceratoides.
