Name: Salix boothii / Equisetum arvense Shrubland
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This uncommon riparian shrubland grows on slopes along the sides of valleys in western Wyoming, and on seepy toeslopes in Idaho and Utah. The sites supporting stands of this type are slopes with wet soils along the edges of stream valleys, usually on the toeslope immediately above the valley floor. Salix boothii and Salix drummondiana form a dense, tall-shrub layer. The understory has abundant Equisetum arvense, and contains at least 5% cover of Mitella pentandra, Parnassia fimbriata, Saxifraga odontoloma, and Galium triflorum, alone or in combination.
