Name: Arctostaphylos patula Shrubland Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of... Description: This association has been found mostly in southwestern Utah but observed in at least one stand in western Colorado. Most sites are on gentle to moderate slopes between 1770 and 2655 m (5800-8700 feet) elevation. The short-shrub canopy can have low to high cover (5-90%) but is consistently dominated by <i>Arctostaphylos patula</i>. Other shrubs may be found at low cover, including <i>Amelanchier utahensis, Artemisia tridentata, Ericameria nauseosa, Purshia tridentata, Quercus gambelii</i>, and <i>Tetradymia canescens</i>. The herbaceous stratum has sparse to low cover and is composed of species common to dry sites on the Colorado Plateau.  Accession Code: VB.CC.34286.CEGL002696 Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
