Elevations range between 370 and 760 m (1200-2500 feet) on all aspects with slopes less than 30%. Soils are silt loams, loams, silty clay loams, and clay over loess and colluvium-alluvium parent material. Grasses dominate with cover values: <i>Aristida purpurea var. longiseta</i> (&lt;70%), <i>Pseudoroegneria spicata</i> (&lt;55%), <i>Sporobolus cryptandrus</i> (&lt;55%). Associated forbs usually include <i>Achillea millefolium</i> (&lt;10%), <i>Erigeron pumilus</i> (&lt;10%), and <i>Plantago patagonica</i> (&lt;10%).  Accession Code: VB.CC.34387.CEGL001589 Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
