Name: A.226
Reference: EcoArt 2002
Description: Dune thickets, to 6 m tall, salt-pruned, with variable admixture of other species of shrubs and dwarfed trees. These forests resemble dwarf forests or shrublands in some cases. Associations in this alliance are dominated by ~Celtis laevigata$, sometimes codominated by ~Zanthoxylum clava-herculis$, with ~Vitis mustangensis$ and ~Acacia farnesiana (= Acacia smallii)$ often abundant. Grazing has affected the structure and species composition of many examples. Soils are dune sands with no profile development.
