Aspen Community Types Of Utah

This vegetation classification is based upon existing community structure and composition in the aspen-dominated forests of the Intermountain Region of the Forest Service. The 56 community types occur within eight tree-cover types. A diagnostic key using indicator species facilitates field identification of the community types.

The classification and descriptions are based upon field data from over 2,100 aspen stands scattered over southeastern Idaho, western Wyoming, Utah, and Nevada.
