This riparian shrubland occurs in the Sierra Nevada, Carson and Sweetwater ranges of western Nevada, the Wildhorse Range of northern Nevada, and in the Teton Range of western Wyoming. Elevation ranges from 2045-2660 m (6700-8720 feet). It occurs on stream terraces, benches or on seeps in narrow to wide valleys, on low- to moderate-gradient slopes. Stream channels are often wide and only slightly sinuous. This is a tall willow shrubland dominated by <i>Salix lemmonii</i>. Other shrubs present include <i>Salix geyeriana</i> and <i>Salix lutea</i> intermixed in the upper canopy, with <i>Ribes inerme</i> occasionally occurring as a sub-shrub canopy. The herbaceous undergrowth is moderate to dense with several graminoid species; none are singly dominant, but graminoid cover is greater than that of any forbs present. Typical graminoid species are <i>Carex pellita (= Carex lanuginosa), Carex nebrascensis, Carex simulata, Carex hoodii, Poa pratensis</i>, and/or <i>Calamagrostis canadensis</i>. Forbs, when present, are sparse or low-growing species not visible due to the dense graminoid cover. Forb species in Nevada indicate moist surface conditions and include <i>Mimulus guttatus, Mentha arvensis, Polemonium caeruleum</i>, and <i>Cardamine</i> spp. In Wyoming, sampled stands were disturbed from grazing and had dry-condition indicator forb species present such as <i>Eriogonum umbellatum, Achillea millefolium, Potentilla pulcherrima</i>, and <i>Symphyotrichum ascendens</i>. |

This red maple swamp forest type is found in the northern parts of the Great Lakes region of the United States and in adjacent Canada. Stands are typically found on muck and shallow peat on lakeplains and floodplains. The canopy structure is variable, with cover ranging from open (25-60%) to closed (60-100%). Common canopy dominants include <i>Acer rubrum, Betula alleghaniensis, Betula papyrifera, Fraxinus nigra, Fraxinus pennsylvanica</i>, and occasional <i>Larix laricina, Pinus strobus</i>, and <i>Ulmus americana</i> (at least historically). <i>Pinus strobus</i> may form a patchy supercanopy above the hardwood canopy. Common shrubs include <i>Alnus incana</i>. <i>Toxicodendron vernix</i> may be common in parts of the range. Other associates include <i>Ilex verticillata, Ribes</i> spp., and <i>Rubus idaeus ssp. strigosus (= Rubus strigosus)</i>. The herbaceous layer contains <i>Carex stipata, Impatiens capensis, Mitella nuda, Onoclea sensibilis, Osmunda cinnamomea, Osmunda claytoniana, Saxifraga pensylvanica</i>, and others. A seepage swamp subtype can occur where steep sandy slopes and gravelly slopes merge with a river or stream terrace. The ground layer can be exceptionally diverse, with characteristic seepage species including <i>Angelica atropurpurea, Carex bromoides, Hydrocotyle americana, Poa paludigena, Saxifraga pensylvanica</i>, and <i>Symplocarpus foetidus</i>. |

Schoenoplectus acutus - Carex lasiocarpa Herbaceous Vegetation

This association occurs in standing water on the shores of lakes in limestone regions, and is dominated by the tall bulrush Schoenoplectus acutus (= Scirpus acutus). Associates include Carex lasiocarpa, Typha angustifolia, Lysimachia thyrsiflora, and Schoenoplectus tabernaemontani (= Scirpus tabernaemontani). Aquatic plants such as Utricularia minor, Utricularia intermedia, Lemna spp., and Menyanthes trifoliata often form an 'understory' below the bulrushes and cattails. This vegetation is currently known from Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New Jersey and is possibly present in the limestone regions of New York and Pennsylvania. |

This community is found in the central and northern tallgrass prairie region of the midwestern United States. It typically occurs on gentle to steep slopes of draws and bluffs, historically where firebreaks occurred. Soils in the northern part of the range include well-drained sandy loams to loams formed in glacial till, and in the southern part include silty to sand loams formed primarily in loess and glacial till. The tree layer is a closed canopy dominated by <i>Quercus macrocarpa</i> with a mixture of shade-tolerant trees, such as <i>Celtis occidentalis, Fraxinus pennsylvanica, Ulmus americana</i>, and <i>Ulmus rubra</i>, and further north <i>Populus tremuloides</i>. Occasionally <i>Tilia americana</i> or <i>Quercus rubra</i> are present. The shrub layer is often prominent, dominated by <i>Amelanchier alnifolia</i> in the north and <i>Cornus drummondii</i> in the south. Other species shared across the range include <i>Prunus virginiana, Ribes missouriense, Rubus occidentalis, Symphoricarpos occidentalis, Symphoricarpos orbiculatus</i>, and <i>Zanthoxylum americanum</i>. Vines include <i>Celastrus scandens, Parthenocissus quinquefolia</i>, and <i>Toxicodendron radicans</i>. The herbaceous layer can be quite sparse. Common species include <i>Aralia nudicaulis, Carex assiniboinensis, Carex blanda, Elymus villosus, Galium boreale, Geum canadense, Maianthemum stellatum, Osmorhiza longistylis, Poa pratensis, Polygonatum biflorum</i>, and <i>Viola sororia</i>. |
