Name: Artemisia arbuscula ssp. longicaulis - Grayia spinosa Shrubland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This shrubland association is characterized by codominance of <i>Artemisia arbuscula ssp. longicaulis</i> and <i>Grayia spinosa</i>. It has been observed on upper alluvial fans coming out of the Virginia Range on the east side of Reno, Nevada. The vegetation includes abundant <i>Bromus tectorum</i>, which may be included in the association name to distinguish this from a similar likely association with <i>Elymus elymoides</i> dominating a graminoid layer. Even in the degraded shrubland where this has been observed, mosses have substantial ground cover under and immediately surrounding many of the shrubs.
