Description: In Colorado, this riparian woodland is common along desert streams and arroyos, and can occur on upper terraces with <i>Populus angustifolia - Juniperus scopulorum</i> woodlands on the lower floodplain. Stands have an open tree canopy of <i>Juniperus scopulorum</i> with an occasional upland species, such as <i>Juniperus monosperma</i>. The understory contains a few shrubs, such as <i>Cornus sericea</i>, and little herbaceous growth. Information on stands that occur outside Colorado will be added later.
