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 <i>Glyceria striata (= Glyceria elata)</i> dominates the community with over 35% cover. Other graminoids include <i>Carex deweyana, Cinna latifolia, Agrostis</i> spp., <i>Carex utriculata</i>, and <i>Carex nebrascensis</i> that contribute little to the community coverage. Shrubs (<i>Alnus incana ssp. tenuifolia, Ribes hudsonianum, Rosa</i> spp.) and forbs (<i>Equisetum</i> spp. <i>Galium triflorum, Geum macrophyllum, Veronica</i> spp.) are rare.
