Name: Pascopyrum smithii - Hordeum jubatum Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This wheatgrass saline prairie type is found in the northern Great Plains of the United States and adjacent Canada. Stands occur in temporarily flooded sites (playas and stock ponds) with deep, poorly drained, clayey, alkaline-saline soils. Stands occur as small patches in temporarily flooded sites, surrounded by grasslands or shrublands. Grasses dominate the vegetation. Pascopyrum smithii (or Elymus lanceolatus) and Hordeum jubatum are the major species, and other species from the surrounding matrix vegetation may be present.
