Name: Tamarix spp. - Elaeagnus angustifolia Ruderal Riparian Forest & Scrub Group
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This group consists of low-elevation riparian areas, seeps and springs throughout the southwestern U.S. and into Mexico that are dominated by non-native invasive woody species. Present to abundant species include <i>Elaeagnus angustifolia, Myoporum laetum, Phoenix canariensis, Prunus mahaleb, Robinia pseudoacacia, Schinus molle, Schinus terebinthifolius, Tamarix</i> spp., <i>Ulmus pumila</i>, or <i>Washingtonia robusta</i>. Salt-cedar habitats tend to support fewer species and individuals than native habitats. If present, native species contribute less than 10% relative cover. Elevation ranges from sea level to above 2135 m (7000 feet). Sites are typically streambanks and benches, floodplains and canyons with permanent, intermittent or temporary waterflow.
