This conspicuous low willow community is restricted in its distribution to humid and acidbanks of upland tundra streams and creeks of the Arctic Foothills zone (roughly between 400 and 800m). It occupies the immediate margins of smaller tundra streams originating in the gentle topography of the foothills, but does not occur in the Brooks Range. Character species include Salix planifolia ssp. pulchra, Valeriana capitata, Polemonium acutiflorum, Aconitum delphinifolium ssp. delphinifolium, Anemone richardsonii, Saxifraga nelsoniana ssp. nelsoniana, Climacium dendroides, Luzula rufescens.
