Description: In Colorado, this riparian woodland is common along desert streams and arroyos, and can occur on upper terraces with Populus angustifolia - Juniperus scopulorum woodlands on the lower floodplain. Stands have an open tree canopy of Juniperus scopulorum with an occasional upland species, such as Juniperus monosperma. The understory contains a few shrubs, such as Cornus sericea, and little herbaceous growth. Information on stands that occur outside Colorado will be added later.
