PLANT COMMUNITIES : 
Great Basin spadefoots occur in sagebrush (Artemisia spp.), shadscale
(Atriplex spp.), and other desert shrub types, plains grasslands, and
pinyon-juniper (Pinus-Juniperus spp.) woodlands [1,10].  In Utah and
northern Arizona, Great Basin spadefoots occur from low desert shrub
habitats up into spruce-fir (Picea-Abies spp.) forests [1].
