Name: Pleuraphis mutica Herbaceous Alliance Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of... Description: This alliance includes grasslands occurring over heavy soils on flats within the Trans-Pecos, southwestern Rolling Plains, and northwestern Edwards Plateau of Texas. These grasslands sometimes occupy sites that receive excess run-off from the surrounding landscape and hence represent small, internally drained basin bottoms. Prosopis glandulosa may be scattered throughout. Other species include Buchloe dactyloides, Panicum obtusum, Digitaria californica, Bouteloua spp., Tridens spp., Scleropogon brevifolius, and Sporobolus spp. These grasslands occur within a matrix of desert shrublands and mixed grasslands. Saline-influenced areas grade into Sporobolus airoides-dominated grassland.  Accession Code: VB.CC.20829.PLEURAPHISMUTIC Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
