Name: Pinus monticola / Clintonia uniflora Forest Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of... Description: This is a mid-seral evergreen conifer forest that once was a major forest component in the mid elevations of the northern Rocky Mountains of Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. This is described to include all Pinus monticola stands in the Tsuga heterophylla, Thuja plicata, Abies grandis, and warm Abies lasiocarpa series of the inland northwest. The forest canopy is dominated by Pinus monticola with a wide variety of sometimes codominant trees such as Pseudotsuga menziesii, Abies grandis, Larix occidentalis. The understory can be a mixture of deciduous shrubs, such as, Acer glabrum and/or mesic site forbs Aralia nudicaulis, Asarum caudatum, and Clintonia uniflora. Collectively this can be referred as the Paxistima myrsinites Union sensu Daubenmire.  Accession Code: VB.CC.26528.PINUSMONTICOLAC Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
