Name: Glyceria striata Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This association is a small-patch wetland and streamside riparian community in the inland Pacific Northwest. It is located at moderately low elevations between 455-1800 m (1500-5900 feet) in broad to moderately wide valleys with low- to very low-gradient wetlands along streams or ponds. Most sites are associated with organic soils or fine-textured soil-covered gravel that dry to 10 to 35 cm (4-20 inches). The grass Glyceria striata (= Glyceria elata) dominates the community with over 35% cover. Other graminoids include Carex deweyana, Cinna latifolia, Agrostis spp., Carex utriculata, and Carex nebrascensis that contribute little to the community coverage. Shrubs (Alnus incana ssp. tenuifolia, Ribes hudsonianum, Rosa spp.) and forbs (Equisetum spp. Galium triflorum, Geum macrophyllum, Veronica spp.) are rare.
