Name: Tiquilia hispidissima Dwarf-shrubland Alliance Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: A semi-evergreen dwarf desert shrubland on gypsum-influenced soils of the Trans-Pecos in western Texas, with Tiquilia hispidissima (= Coldenia hispidissima) as a constant component. Anulocaulis gypsogenus, Artemisia filifolia, Bouteloua breviseta, Bouteloua trifida, Ephedra torreyana, Gaillardia multiceps, Krameria lanceolata, Mentzelia humilis, Mentzelia humilis, Nama carnosum, Nerisyrenia linearifolia, Sartwellia flaveriae, Selinocarpus spp., Sporobolus airoides, Sporobolus nealleyi, Thelesperma megapotamicum, Yucca elata, Yucca torreyi, along with several cactus species, are typical associates. Substrate ranges from wind-blown gypsum dunes to nearly bare gyp deposits, and plant species composition varies accordingly. These shrublands occur within a matrix of xeromorphic shrubland and may form landscape mosaics with other gyp-tolerant associations in alternately wet and dry habitats.  Accession Code: VB.CC.17981.TIQUILIAHISPIDI Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
