Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This association is described from sites located in the White Knob and Pioneer mountains of central Idaho and possibly the Sweetwater Mountains of California. The association occurs in well-drained alpine environments, including fell-fields and sandy ridgetops. The gently sloped sites occur at approximately 3172 to 3355 m (10,400-11,000 feet) elevation. The association consists of a very low-growing, patchy mat of forbs and a few graminoids. <i>Ivesia gordonii</i> is dominant and associated with <i>Minuartia obtusiloba (= Arenaria obtusiloba), Phlox pulvinata, Smelowskia calycina, Selaginella densa</i>, and <i>Oxytropis parryi</i>.
