Name: Baccharis salicina Shrubland Reference: Midwestern Ecology Working Group... Description: This shrubland is dominated by short shrubs (generally less than 2 m tall), but taller shrubs and trees are common. It has been identified in the northern panhandle of Texas but is likely more widespread in the southwestern Great Plains. This association is found near streams and lakes, often on the first terrace and on alluvial soils. The water table is high and seasonal flooding is common. Stands usually have a dense short-shrub canopy strongly dominated by <i>Baccharis salicina</i>, but other short and tall shrubs and trees are often present, including <i>Salix</i> spp., <i>Tamarix</i> spp., and <i>Populus deltoides</i>. The herbaceous stratum is typically sparse to moderate due to the heavy shading by shrubs. Common herbaceous species are <i>Muhlenbergia asperifolia, Panicum virgatum</i>, and <i>Phragmites australis</i>.  Accession Code: VB.CC.36638.CEGL005007 Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
