Name: Baccharis emoryi / Juncus arcticus ssp. littoralis Wet Shrubland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This riparian shrubland association is found along the lower Pecos in southeastern New Mexico. It occurs along low-gradient rivers of wide lowland valleys at elevations from 1370 m (4500 feet). Sites are l low-depositional riverbars that are flooded at least on a five-year basis. Soils are reported as coarse-loamy over sandy-skeletal Oxyaquic Ustifluvents. Thickets of the shrub <i>Baccharis emoryi</i> form moderate (40% cover) shrub canopies with a graminoid understory dominated by <i>Juncus arcticus ssp. littoralis</i> with a scattering of other grasses and forbs such as <i>Sporobolus compositus var. compositus, Sporobolus airoides, Schoenoplectus pungens, Muhlenbergia asperifolia</i>, and <i>Oenothera villosa ssp. strigosa</i>. The exotic <i>Tamarix ramosissima</i> can be well-represented but clearly not dominant.
