Name: A.1823
Reference: EcoArt 2002
Description: Vegetation of this alliance develops where seepage occurs through acidic clays on saturated vertical to near-vertical, shaded exposures along large creeks. This vegetation is typically dominated by ~Sphagnum$ spp., ~Pallavicinia lyellii$, other mosses such as ~Atrichum$ sp., ~Plagiomnium$ sp., and other various liverworts and mosses. This vegetation occurs on cutbanks of large creeks. Shrubs often arch over the banks from above, shading them for much of the day.
