Name: Alnus rubra / Athyrium filix-femina - Lysichiton americanus Swamp Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association may take the form of a woodland or forest, sometimes with seasonal pools. Stands are dominated by <i>Alnus rubra</i> in both mature and reproducing layers, with a small representation of <i>Thuja plicata</i> in both layers. <i>Rubus spectabilis</i> is abundant in the shrub layer in about half of sampled plots. <i>Lysichiton americanus</i> and <i>Athyrium filix-femina</i> dominate the herb layer, which contains over 65 other species, most with low constancy and cover. Moss cover is usually on elevated microsites such as logs and tip-up mounds.
