Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This plant association occurs on broad, gentle alpine ridges of the Challis Volcanics and Beaverhead Mountains ecoregional sections in east-central Idaho. The association occurs on gentle to moderately steep, low-inclination slopes that are areas of snow and soil accumulation. Elevations range from 2990 to 3140 m (9800-10,300 feet). Moderately deep, stable, gravelly soils are derived from limestone, siliceous volcanic rocks, and quartzite. <i>Leucopoa kingii (= Festuca kingii)</i> forms dense stands with <i>Poa secunda, Poa fendleriana ssp. fendleriana, Lupinus argenteus, Agoseris glauca, Erigeron compositus, Oxytropis sericea</i>, and <i>Cymopterus nivalis</i>.
