Name: Salix exigua - Baccharis salicifolia Shrubland
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This association is found in the middle Rio Grande watershed in central New Mexico. Preliminary data suggest that this type is located on frequently flooded sandy sidebars at elevations around 1400 m (4600 feet). Soils are reported as Typic Psammaquents. <i>Salix exigua</i> and <i>Baccharis salicifolia</i> dominate a dense shrub layer (>80% cover) with a scattering of <i>Populus</i> spp. regeneration. In this strongly shrub-dominated type, graminoids and forbs can be well-represented but not abundant. Native wetland indicators recorded for the type include <i>Cyperus esculentus, Juncus torreyi, Cicuta douglasii</i>, and <i>Euthamia occidentalis</i>.
