Name: Salix irrorata Temporarily Flooded Shrubland Alliance Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of... Description: Communities within this alliance occur along streams in New Mexico and Arizona. Elevations range from 1350-2857 m. Landforms that support these types are typically floodplains adjacent to streams and arroyos. Soils and specific landform information was not available. Communities within this alliance are described as broad-leaved cold-deciduous, temporarily flooded shrublands. They are dominated by Salix irrorata with a total overstory cover that averaged 51%. Other codominants include Populus fremontii and Acer negundo. The low-shrub component in these associations consisted of Rosa spp., Rubus idaeus ssp. strigosus (= Rubus strigosus), Cornus sericea, and shrub-sized Acer negundo. Common herbaceous species include Fragaria virginiana ssp. glauca (= Fragaria ovalis), Thalictrum fendleri, and Geranium spp.  Accession Code: VB.CC.21827.SALIXIRRORATATE Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
