Name: Salix lasiolepis / Barren Ground Shrubland
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This plant association typically occurs in narrow valley bottoms throughout Nevada, in southern Utah, and southwestern Idaho. Stands occur on stream benches (channel bars that have become elevated due to sediment accumulation), as stringers along moderate gradient channels, and occasionally around sloping springs. Salix lasiolepis creates a dense overstory. Ribes aureum and Rosa woodsii are sometimes present with low cover. Herbaceous undergrowth is sparse due to shading, xeric soil conditions, or possibly grazing pressure and no species has high cover or constancy.
