Narrative
Deciduous shrub 3-6 meters tall at maturity. Staminate flower up to 10 cm long; pistillate flowers 3-6 per branch. Fruit with thin membranous wings usually at least half as broad as the nutlet. Used for stream corridor management and bank erosin control along low-velocity streams and rivers. Potential for reclamation of eroded, low fertility sites and mine spoils and as a companion tree on reforestation plantations. Area of adaptation from southeast to northeast California and central Montana. Selected as the best performer in a common garden seed source study of 64 alder populations established and evaluated at the USDA NRCS Corvallis Plant Materials Center, Corvallis, OR.

Comment:
the name Alnus alnobetula (Ehrh.) K. Koch, based on Betula alnobetula Ehrh. (1783) has priority over A. viridis (Chaix) DC., based on B. viridis Chaix (1786); nevertheless, A. viridis is retained here until all infraspecific taxa are accounted for under A. alnobetula
Verified:
