Name: Baccharis (emoryi, salicina) - Salix exigua Wet Shrubland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This riparian association is found in the Colorado Plateau and Pecos Basin in southeastern New Mexico and may occur in Trans-Pecos Texas. <i>Baccharis emoryi</i> or <i>Baccharis salicina</i> forms dense shrub thickets in association with <i>Salix exigua</i>. Canopies can exceed 85% cover and reach up to 2.5 m (8 feet) in height. The herbaceous layer is low to moderate in cover. Species may include <i>Agrostis stolonifera, Eleocharis palustris, Equisetum</i> spp., <i>Juncus arcticus ssp. littoralis, Muhlenbergia asperifolia, Oxytenia acerosa, Phragmites australis, Saccharum ravennae, Schoenoplectus pungens</i>, and <i>Typha domingensis</i>. Stands occur along low-gradient rivers with sandy-bottomed channels of wide lowland valleys at elevations from 450 to 1150 m (1500-3775 feet). Soils are moderately well-drained to well-drained silt loams or sandy loams derived from alluvium. Occasionally, they may have a thin, clayey surface layer that retains greater moisture. Underlying layers have less than 35% cobbles or gravels.
