Name: Artemisia tridentata ssp. tridentata / Leymus cinereus Shrubland Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of... Description: This widely distributed plant association is a transitional community found along the edges of washes and gullies of the high desert steppe. It is generally narrow or linear in occurrence and confined to stream benches of low floodplain areas. Fire and the seasonally high water tables play important roles in maintaining a high cover of Leymus cinereus. This grassland plant association is dominated by 15-90% cover of Leymus cinereus while Artemisia tridentata ssp. tridentata occurs at the edges of the stands with 5-30% cover. Few other forbs or graminoids occur.  Accession Code: VB.CC.19140.ARTEMISIATRIDEN Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
