Name: Pseudotsuga menziesii / Piptatherum micranthum Woodland
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: <i>Pseudotsuga menziesii / Piptatherum micranthum</i> Woodland occurs in the Missouri River Breaks south of the Little Rocky Mountains in Phillips County, north-central Montana. <i>Pseudotsuga menziesii</i> is the climax tree species, and <i>Pinus ponderosa</i> is common in seral stands. <i>Juniperus scopulorum</i> and <i>Symphoricarpos occidentalis</i> are common in the understory. <i>Piptatherum micranthum (= Oryzopsis micrantha)</i> and species of moss are common in the ground layer. This vegetation is found only on cool, moist slopes. Soils are presumably derived from shales and sandstones.
