Name: Baccharis salicina Shrubland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This riparian shrubland occurs from the northern panhandle of Texas, across the southwestern Great Plains, and west into the Colorado Plateau. This shrubland usually has a dense short-shrub canopy strongly dominated by <i>Baccharis salicina</i>, but other short and tall shrubs and trees are often present, including <i>Salix</i> spp., <i>Tamarix</i> spp., and <i>Populus deltoides</i>. The herbaceous stratum is typically sparse to moderate due to the heavy shading by shrubs. Common herbaceous species are <i>Muhlenbergia asperifolia, Panicum virgatum</i>, and <i>Phragmites australis</i>. This association is found near streams and lakes, often on the first terrace and on alluvial soils. The water table is high and seasonal flooding is common.
