Name: Festuca idahoensis - Eriogonum caespitosum Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This association is described from alpine slopes of the Pioneer, White Knob, and Beaverhead mountains of central Idaho. The association occurs at the lower margin of the alpine zone on moderately steep south-facing slopes. Elevation ranges from 3110 to 3125 m (10,190-10,250 feet). Substrate parent materials are of volcanic origin. <i>Festuca idahoensis</i> dominates the relatively sparse, low-growing vegetation. <i>Eriogonum caespitosum</i> is codominant. <i>Agoseris glauca, Artemisia tridentata ssp. vaseyana, Eriogonum ovalifolium, Ivesia gordonii</i>, and <i>Lupinus argenteus</i> are present to common.
