Name: Eastern Boreal & Laurentian Sandstone Talus Vegetation
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This sandstone talus community is found in the eastern boreal and Laurentian region (upper Great Lakes) of Canada and the United States. Stands occur at the bases of steep cliffs along larger streams or rivers, or strongly dissected valleys. Aspect is variable, and moisture could be moist or dry. Soils are generally absent. Parent material is sandstone. The vegetation is generally sparse, but may vary depending on degree of slope, exposure (open vs. shaded) and rock type. The composition of the type may be heavily influenced by adjacent forested stands. The vegetation of this type has not been characterized.
