Name: Salix boothii / Maianthemum stellatum Shrubland
Reference: Youngblood, A. P., W. G. Padgett...
Description: This riparian shrubland is found in the mountains of western Wyoming and eastern Idaho at elevations of 1830 to 2650 m (6000-8700 feet). Stands generally grow on gently sloping streamside benches and less often on steep toeslopes near seeps on slumps. Soils are mineral, mostly of fine-loamy to coarse-loamy texture. The vegetation consists of a tall-shrub layer of <i>Salix boothii</i> or <i>Salix drummondiana</i>. A lower shrub layer of <i>Lonicera involucrata</i> and <i>Ribes inerme</i> may be present. The undergrowth is composed primarily of forbs, the most common of which are <i>Maianthemum stellatum, Heracleum maximum, Mertensia ciliata, Thalictrum occidentale, Thalictrum fendleri, Galium triflorum</i>, and <i>Angelica</i> spp.
