This table represents a list of all plant associations previously described from Alaska. The list should be considered provisional in its current state as the plant associations have not been standardized to a common classification schema or reviewed relative to current ecological knowledge. Species nomenclature for the alliance and association names has not been updated from the original publications.
To download the complete list of plant associations, select “All” in the “Show entries” menu and then click the “Excel” or “CSV” button. Please note that displaying all records will require additional loading time.
