Name: Pinus edulis / Muhlenbergia dubia Woodland Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of... Description: This association occurs on moderate slopes of predominantly southeastern aspects at elevations from 6000-7300 feet. The slopes are often slightly to moderately rocky. Pinus edulis dominates the abundant tree layer, with Juniperus deppeana and Juniperus monosperma also present. There is a sparse shrub understory, primarily of Quercus X pauciloba (= Quercus undulata). The grass layer is abundant to luxuriant and is dominated by Muhlenbergia dubia. Other grasses present are Piptochaetium fimbriatum, Bouteloua gracilis, Bouteloua curtipendula, Schizachyrium scoparium and Andropogon gerardii. This plant association occurs at higher elevations than most of the Pinus edulis series. On north-facing slopes Pinus ponderosa may be common. No phases have been described of suggested for this association.  Accession Code: VB.CC.25028.PINUSEDULISMUHL Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
