These woodlands occur over rocky, shallow soils on dry to xeric limestone slopes in the Edwards Plateau and Lampasas Cutplain of Texas. The association is dominated by <i>Juniperus ashei</i> with high cover of <i>Quercus buckleyi</i>. Total cover varies by exposure but can approach that of a forest. <i>Quercus fusiformis</i> may be present, especially along toeslopes adjacent to deeper soils. Other woody species include <i>Fraxinus texensis</i>, which may sometimes be a codominant, <i>Quercus muehlenbergii, Quercus sinuata var. breviloba, Toxicodendron radicans, Rhus trilobata, Lonicera albiflora, Frangula caroliniana, Forestiera pubescens, Viburnum rufidulum, Ilex decidua, Sideroxylon lanuginosum</i>, and <i>Ulmus crassifolia</i>. Herbaceous cover is sparse and may include <i>Carex planostachys, Salvia roemeriana, Nolina</i> spp., <i>Tragia brevispica, Tragia ramosa, Lespedeza texana, Schizachyrium scoparium, Bouteloua hirsuta, Sporobolus compositus, Stillingia texana, Galactia volubilis, Brickellia cylindracea</i> and <i>Matelea</i> spp. |

Essentially a highly disturbed <i>Calophyllum - Calyptronoma - Symphonia - Drypetes</i> Forest with admixture of a few introduced timber species, primarily <i>Hibiscus elatus</i> and <i>Cedrela odorata</i>. These species may be sparsely scattered to dominant within the forest association. May include other non-native species of economic value such as <i>Cocos nucifera</i> and <i>Musa</i> spp. DISTRIBUTION: Jamaica: the John Crow Mountains. |

This woodland is reported from the Fremont National Forest in Oregon. Elevation ranges from 1770 to 2135 m (5800-7000 feet). Aspect is south to northwest. Slope is 1-25% and slope position is the lower to upper one-third. The topography is flat to convex and also ridgetops. Soils are ash over basalt, andesite and loess. <i>Pinus ponderosa</i> is the most common tree, but <i>Juniperus occidentalis</i> is often found. <i>Pinus contorta</i> and <i>Abies concolor</i> occur occasionally. <i>Artemisia tridentata ssp. vaseyana</i> occurs in all stands and <i>Symphoricarpos albus</i> and <i>Ribes cereum</i> are common. Common herbaceous species include <i>Poa nervosa, Lupinus argenteus, Achillea millefolium, Elymus elymoides, Carex pensylvanica, Festuca idahoensis, Fragaria virginiana</i>, and <i>Hieracium albiflorum</i>. Fire is important in these forests to maintain the open nature of the forest, with scattered large <i>Pinus ponderosa</i> trees and limited shrub cover. |

This <i>Pinus ponderosa</i> / sedge forest occurs in Colorado and Wyoming from 1890 to 2940 m (6195-9650 feet) in elevation. It occupies gentle to moderate slopes (0-40%) with variable aspects on moderately deep, well-drained, sandy loam soils. Tree canopy cover is moderately dense to dense and strongly dominated by <i>Pinus ponderosa</i>. Occasional canopy associates include <i>Pseudotsuga menziesii</i> or <i>Juniperus scopulorum</i>. The shrub layer is usually sparse, although <i>Cercocarpus montanus, Juniperus communis</i>, and <i>Purshia tridentata</i> are often present. <i>Ribes cereum</i> occurs occasionally. The herbaceous layer is likewise sparse with <i>Carex rossii</i> dominant (7-16% cover). Additional herbs that occur with low cover include <i>Koeleria macrantha, Muhlenbergia montana, Leucopoa kingii, Mertensia lanceolata, Harbouria trachypleura, Achillea millefolium var. occidentalis (= Achillea lanulosa), Geranium caespitosum</i>, and <i>Artemisia ludoviciana</i>. Unvegetated surface is common in these stands and is comprised of dense needle duff. |

This association has been described for only the Little Rocky Mountains of north-central Montana and the Black Hills of eastern Wyoming. Stands occur below 1280 m (4200 feet), adjacent to major creek bottoms and the lower toeslopes and footslope positions on adjacent slopes, showing no favor for particular aspects. In Montana, post-fire seral conditions can be dominated by almost pure stands of <i>Populus tremuloides</i> with scattered <i>Pinus ponderosa</i> in the seedling-sapling layer. Seral stands may also have relatively few veteran, fire-scarred <i>Pinus ponderosa</i> with <i>Populus tremuloides</i> in the understory. Stands undisturbed by fire (at least for several hundred years) may be pure <i>Pinus ponderosa</i>. The undergrowth is shrub-dominated with <i>Mahonia repens (= Berberis repens)</i>, the diagnostic species, having the highest cover with <i>Prunus virginiana, Symphoricarpos occidentalis</i> and <i>Spiraea betulifolia</i> usually common. The only graminoid of note is <i>Oryzopsis asperifolia</i>. Forbs with high constancy include <i>Eurybia conspicua (= Aster conspicuus), Thalictrum occidentale, Viola canadensis, Galium boreale</i>, and <i>Monarda fistulosa</i>. In stands at Devils Tower, Wyoming, the overstory was dominated by <i>Pinus ponderosa</i> with cover in the 25-60% range. Though a range of tree sizes was present, it was difficult to identify two distinct strata. <i>Juniperus scopulorum</i> and <i>Quercus macrocarpa</i> were present but sparse. Shrub cover was less than 25% in stands sampled. <i>Mahonia repens</i> often dominated the shrub stratum but was sometimes sparse. <i>Symphoricarpos albus</i> was sometimes present but sparse. Herbaceous cover was in the 25-100% range, with a diverse mix of grassland and woodland species. <i>Nassella viridula</i> was a common graminoid in both stands sampled. |
