Name: Populus fremontii - Fraxinus velutina Riparian Woodland Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This is a lowland forested riparian association known from central and southeastern Arizona, southwestern New Mexico and southwestern Utah. Elevations range from 1200-1550 m. Sites are typically rocky or sandy banks of moderate-gradient streams (1.5%) that are frequently flooded (two-year recurrence interval). Soils have been reported as coarse-loamy over fragmental Typic Torrifluvents, and as cobbly riverwash, reflecting the coarse substrates of sites. <i>Populus fremontii</i> and <i>Fraxinus velutina</i> codominate young, moderate to dense canopies (&gt;50% cover). <i>Acer negundo, Salix gooddingii, Juglans major, Alnus oblongifolia</i>, and <i>Celtis laevigata var. reticulata</i> are occasional canopy or subcanopy associates. Undergrowth is moderately diverse, but cover is low. In the shrub layer there are usually scattered individuals of <i>Baccharis salicifolia</i> and <i>Amorpha fruticosa</i>. The herbaceous layer has sparse to moderate cover. Common associates may include <i>Juncus saximontanus, Sphenopholis obtusata, Sporobolus cryptandrus, Muhlenbergia wrightii</i>, and <i>Datura wrightii</i>. Disturbed stands often have high cover of the introduced <i>Bromus diandrus, Bromus tectorum</i>, or some other exotics.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:29851-{D312B562-9428-4C2B-96FB-84F1CE6A064B} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 5
