Name: Salix exigua Warm Desert Wet Shrubland Alliance Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This alliance covers riparian shrublands of the warm deserts of the southwestern U.S. and adjacent Mexico dominated by <i>Salix exigua</i> and/or <i>Salix interior</i> or intermediates between these two taxa. These shrublands are found on open sandbars without tree canopy shading, on larger, well-developed drainages and along larger sandy rivers, or on coarser-textured substrates. The canopy is dominated by a medium to tall (2-5 m) deciduous shrub that is typically many-branched with continuous cover of 60-100%. The herbaceous stratum has sparse to moderate cover, including a variety of pioneering species, such as <i>Glycyrrhiza lepidota</i> and <i>Pascopyrum smithii</i>.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:38136-{C04C008A-B324-459B-93B2-E4D00784180F} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
