Abstract
  • Riparian plant assemblages give clues of the conditions of the soil and other physical characteristics of their stream-side environment. The plight of the spring/summer, and fall Snake River chinook salmon has aroused interest in fish habitat and the effects of riparian plants on fish habitat. This study was launched to determine if riparian plant species assemblages could be used as an efficient assessor of fish habitat and the effects of land use on riparian areas and streams in the Payette National Forest in Central Idaho. Five plant communities are described. Stream attributes of streambank undercut width and streambank stability were different between communities, while fish habitat type and substrate particle size were not. Management implications for each plant community type were drawn from the current condition of the riparian area and stream attributes.
