Name: Larrea tridentata / Tiquilia hispidissima Shrubland Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This is a plant association of the Southwest and a minor type on White Sands Missile Range. It is known to occur at low elevations on gypsum soils near Mound Springs in the northern Tularosa basin. It is characterized by a very open canopy of <i>Larrea tridentata</i> and <i>Prosopis glandulosa</i> with scattered cover of the low-growing dwarf-shrub <i>Tiquilia hispidissima</i>. The soils are a patchwork of exposed gypsum outcrop hummocks surrounded by deflated areas that are overlain by deep layers of alluvial sediments. This association is probably limited to areas where gypsum is exposed.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:30176-{7408F373-7033-48A4-AA7E-98661021EC8C} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
