Name: Salix boothii / Maianthemum stellatum Shrubland
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This riparian shrubland is found in the mountains of western Wyoming and eastern Idaho at elevations of 1830 to 2650 m (6000-8700 feet). Stands generally grow on gently sloping streamside benches and less often on steep toeslopes near seeps on slumps. Soils are mineral, mostly of fine-loamy to coarse-loamy texture. The vegetation consists of a tall-shrub layer of Salix boothii or Salix drummondiana. A lower shrub layer of Lonicera involucrata and Ribes inerme may be present. The undergrowth is composed primarily of forbs, the most common of which are Maianthemum stellatum, Heracleum maximum, Mertensia ciliata, Thalictrum occidentale, Thalictrum fendleri, Galium triflorum, and Angelica spp.
