This jack pine / fir forest is found in the hemi-boreal region of the midwestern United States and in central Canada. Stands occur on thin soil to moderately deep (50-100 cm), often sandy soils. The tree layer of this community is dominated by <i>Pinus banksiana</i>, often to the exclusion of other species, but occasionally mixed stands with <i>Populus tremuloides</i> are found. <i>Abies balsamea, Betula papyrifera, Picea mariana</i>, and <i>Populus tremuloides</i> dominate the sapling and seedling layers and sometimes occur in the canopy. There is a well-developed shrub layer containing species such as <i>Amelanchier alnifolia, Corylus cornuta, Diervilla lonicera, Linnaea borealis, Lonicera canadensis, Vaccinium angustifolium</i>, and <i>Vaccinium myrtilloides</i>. The herbaceous layer is dominated by dry-mesic forest species, including <i>Aralia nudicaulis, Eurybia macrophylla (= Aster macrophyllus), Clintonia borealis, Coptis trifolia, Galium boreale</i>, and <i>Melampyrum lineare</i>. Mosses and lichens are common on the forest floor. |

This open meadow association is known only from Grand Teton National Park and surrounding U.S. Forest Service land. It is a montane to subalpine forb community that occurs in subxeric to mesic areas. The elevational range of stands is 2365 to 2760 m (7750-9050 feet). The well-drained soils include loams, sandy loams, and clay loams. It is dominated by forbs, although graminoids do occur. The most abundant and consistently present species in 7 plots are <i>Geranium viscosissimum, Delphinium x occidentale</i>, and <i>Elymus trachycaulus</i>. It may be similar to other forb-dominated associations noted in the literature elsewhere in Wyoming and eastern Idaho. |

This jack pine - red pine dry sand woodland type is found in northern Minnesota and in the central hemi-boreal forest region of Canada. Stands occur on flat to rolling topography. The soils are relatively infertile sand, loamy sand, sandy loam, and sometimes silt. There is a shallow but largely continuous layer of humus. The overstory is dominated by <i>Pinus banksiana</i> or <i>Pinus resinosa</i>. There may be scattered <i>Pinus strobus,</i><i> Populus tremuloides</i>, and, in stands adjacent to low areas, <i>Picea mariana</i>. The canopy is typically 15-20 m tall. The more mesic sites tend to have denser shrub layers. Typical components include <i>Amelanchier alnifolia, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, Diervilla lonicera, Hudsonia tomentosa</i>, and <i>Vaccinium angustifolium</i>. Common herbaceous species are <i>Symphyotrichum laeve (= Aster laevis), Cornus canadensis, Maianthemum canadense, Oryzopsis asperifolia</i>, and <i>Solidago</i> spp. Drier sites have more open understories and depauperate flora. Mosses are common, especially on more mesic sites. This community develops following fire. Without periodic fires, later successional species, such as <i>Abies balsamea, Picea glauca</i> and <i>Picea mariana</i>, may invade. |

This alliance is found in subalpine meadows in northwestern Wyoming. Stands are found between 1970-2500 m on all aspects of gentle to steep slopes. The soils are derived from limestone, sandstone, or shale parent materials and have clay or clay loam textures. ~Wyethia amplexicaulis$ forms large stands, greater than 1 acre in size, and dominates the herbaceous canopy with 50-75% cover. ~Achillea millefolium, Bromus carinatus, Collomia linearis$, and ~Geranium viscosissimum$ are common forb and graminoid associates. |

This jack pine woodland is found in the northern parts of the midwestern United States and in central Ontario, with disjunct occurrences in the far northeastern United States. Sites occupy flat to rolling topography. The soils are sandy loams, fine sands, and loamy sands, shallow to deep, and with low organic content. The overstory of this forest community is largely made up of densely spaced conifers with a scattering of deciduous trees. The trees in this community are typically 15-20 m tall. <i>Pinus banksiana</i> is often the only tree of significance in the overstory. In some stands, smaller amounts of <i>Betula papyrifera, Picea mariana, Pinus resinosa</i>, and <i>Populus tremuloides</i> may be found. Tall shrubs are uncommon, but may occur in patches. The most common of these are <i>Alnus viridis</i> and <i>Amelanchier alnifolia</i>. In the Midwest, occasional grubs of <i>Quercus ellipsoidalis</i> and <i>Quercus macrocarpa</i> may be present. Low shrubs are abundant. These include <i>Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, Diervilla lonicera, Juniperus communis, Linnaea borealis, Rosa acicularis</i>, and <i>Vaccinium</i> spp. The herbaceous layer contains many species typical of northern coniferous forests, such as <i>Aralia nudicaulis, Anemone quinquefolia, Cornus canadensis, Fragaria virginiana, Maianthemum canadense</i>, and <i>Trientalis borealis</i>. Mosses, especially <i>Pleurozium schreberi</i>, form a nearly continuous carpet. |
