Name: Populus fremontii / Celtis laevigata var. reticulata / Mahonia haematocarpa Riparian Woodland Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This is a lowland riparian woodland known from southeastern Arizona. Elevation is at or below 1100 m (3600 feet). Stands occur in along perennial, low-gradient streams and in floodplains that are frequently flooded. Soils are derived from alluvium and vary from sandy to clayey. The vegetation is characterized by the dominance of <i>Populus fremontii</i> in the tree canopy, sometimes as an emergent strata. <i>Celtis laevigata var. reticulata</i> may codominate in the tree canopy or form a subcanopy or tall-shrub layer. <i>Prosopis velutina</i> is often present to codominate in the subcanopy or tall-shrub layer. Other important shrubs include <i>Ziziphus obtusifolia</i> and <i>Prunus</i> sp. that may extend into the tall-shrub layer (2-5 m tall). <i>Baccharis sarothroides, Forestiera shrevei</i>, and <i>Ulmus</i> sp. may form an open to moderately dense short-shrub layer. <i>Mahonia haematocarpa</i> is typically present in one of the shrub layers. The herbaceous layer is sparse to moderately dense depending on the density of the shrub layer. Associated species include <i>Acalypha ostryifolia, Carex</i> sp., <i>Digitaria californica</i>, and <i>Leptochloa dubia</i>. <i>Sorghum halepense</i> is present in disturbed stands.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:34102-{47BDC45D-9406-48BB-BDB7-AC56CF5E2EC2} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
