Name: Abies grandis / Senecio triangularis Riparian Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This forest association is found at low to mid elevations of the <i>Abies grandis</i> zone, as a minor type, in northern Idaho and northwestern Montana. Stands are relatively warm and located on bottomlands, moist benches, and toeslopes with seasonally high water tables. The tree layer is codominated by <i>Abies grandis</i> and <i>Picea engelmannii</i>, with <i>Abies grandis</i> showing a greater reproductive capacity under heavy shading. <i>Pseudotsuga menziesii</i> and <i>Larix occidentalis</i> may be present on the edges or drier portions of the type. Medium-tall shrubs, such as <i>Acer glabrum</i> and <i>Menziesia ferruginea</i>, may be present but with low cover. <i>Athyrium filix-femina</i>, a fern, is usually present with greater than 50% constancy. The understory is represented by a diversity of moist-site forbs that include <i>Asarum caudatum, Clintonia uniflora, Coptis occidentalis, Galium triflorum</i>, and <i>Senecio triangularis</i>.
