Name: Leucopoa kingii - Phlox pulvinata Herbaceous Vegetation Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of... Description: This plant association occurs on broad, gentle alpine ridges of the Challis Volcanics and Beaverhead Mountains ecoregional sections in east-central Idaho. The association occurs on gentle to moderately steep, convex, southwest- to north-facing ridgetops. Sites are often on windward exposures at 2990-3140 m (9800-10,300 feet) elevation. Moderately deep, moderately unstable, very gravelly soils are derived from limestone, siliceous volcanic rocks, and quartzite. Leucopoa kingii (= Festuca kingii) is the dominant species in this open, low-growing bunchgrass vegetation. Associated species include Phlox pulvinata, Lupinus argenteus, Poa secunda, Agoseris glauca, and Achillea millefolium.  Accession Code: VB.CC.19044.LEUCOPOAKINGIIP Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
