Classification Comments: There has been confusion over the taxonomy of Salix eriocephala which is synonymous with Salix rigida Muhl. and Salix lutea Nutt., which may have resulted in misidentification of the dominant species of some stands. Compare stands in this association to stands of ~Salix lutea / Rosa woodsii Wet Shrubland (CEGL002624)$$. See the discussion of Salix lutea and Salix boothii taxonomy in the Introductory section of Manning and Padgett (1995) It is still uncertain if Salix eriocephala is the correct taxon occurring in Nevada, and so the distribution of this association in Nevada is tentative at best.
