General: Limber Pine Dwarf Mistletoe (Arceuthobium cyanocarpum) is a parasitic plant that lives by taking water and nutrients from other species of plants. There are nine species of mistletoe in Nevada (perhaps eight in southern Nevada), and Limber Pine Dwarf Mistletoe specializes on Limber Pine.

In the genus Arceuthobium, the plant reproduces by ejecting sticky seeds from the berry. The seeds land on other branches or other trees and start a new plant.

Family: Mistletoe (Santalaceae [formerly Viscaceae]).
