Name: Interior West Ruderal Flooded & Swamp Forest & Woodland Macrogroup
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This macrogroup consists of low-elevation riparian areas throughout the southwestern U.S. and into Mexico that are dominated by non-native invasive woody species. Abundant species include <i>Elaeagnus angustifolia, Tamarix chinensis, Tamarix parviflora</i>, and <i>Tamarix ramosissima</i>. <i>Schinus molle, Schinus terebinthifolius</i>, or <i>Myoporum laetum</i> may be present to abundant, but these latter species are not restricted to riparian settings. There are no native species present or, if present, they contribute less than 10% relative cover. Elevation ranges from sea level to above 2000 m (6500 feet). Sites are typically streambanks and benches, floodplains and canyons with permanent, intermittent or temporary waterflow.
