Name: Sporobolus airoides - Distichlis spicata Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This grassland community is found in the Tularosa Basin of south-central New Mexico. Initial data suggest that this type occurs at the bottom of closed basins at elevations of around 1285 m (4220 feet). <i>Distichlis spicata</i> and <i>Sporobolus airoides</i> codominate these grasslands of lowland alluvial flats that are seasonally flooded. Scattered <i>Allenrolfea occidentalis</i> and <i>Limonium limbatum</i> may be present, but shrubs are generally conspicuous.
