Name: Artemisia pedatifida / Elymus elymoides Shrubland
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This vegetation type has been reported from basins in south-central Wyoming, where it occurs on level to moderately sloping sites with soils of clay to loam texture. The low vegetation is composed mainly of dwarf-shrubs and grasses. The dwarf-shrub component generally consists of <i>Artemisia pedatifida</i> and at least one other species, either <i>Kochia americana, Atriplex gardneri</i>, or <i>Krascheninnikovia lanata</i>. <i>Elymus elymoides</i> and <i>Poa secunda</i> generally are the major herbaceous species, although <i>Achnatherum hymenoides, Pascopyrum smithii</i>, and <i>Phlox hoodii</i> usually are present and may contribute substantial cover.
