Malus fusca Shrub Swamp Alliance | NatureServe Biotics 2019
click to update datacart
Name: Malus fusca Shrub Swamp Alliance Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This wet shrubland alliance occurs in lowland depressions. Typical known examples are dense, monotypic stands of <i>Malus fusca</i> with an understory of <i>Carex obnupta</i>. Depending on hydroperiod, the understory ranges from nearly 100% cover of <i>Carex obnupta</i> to very low cover of any other vegetation because of prolonged seasonal ponding. Other shrubs present may include <i>Salix geyeriana</i> and <i>Spiraea douglasii</i>. This type may have been more widespread historically, as large expanses of swamp vegetation once occurred in the northern Willamette and Tualatin valleys.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:38365-{84B1A73E-762A-4524-98AF-6B7C5B7B757A} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
