DISTRIBUTION AND OCCURRENCE
SPECIES: Actaea rubra | Red Baneberry 



GENERAL DISTRIBUTION : 
Red baneberry is found in moist woods in the Northern Temperate Zone of
North America and Eurasia [57,59].  Its range in western North America
extends from Alaska south through the Coast Ranges and the Sierra Nevada
in California through the Rocky Mountains to Arizona and New Mexico.  It
is distributed transcontinentally across northern North America from the
West Coast to New England and Labrador.  In the East and Midwest, it
reaches its southern limits in New Jersey, Indiana, Iowa, and Kansas
[32,38,57,72].

HABITAT TYPES AND PLANT COMMUNITIES : 
Presence of red baneberry frequently indicates moist sites [35,75].  In
British Columbia's subboreal spruce (Picea glauca x engelmannii) zone,
its presence may differentiate seral stages of the spruce/devil's club
(Oplopanax horridus) ecosystem from other seral, mesic spruce ecosystems
[33].  Publications listing red baneberry as an indicator or dominant
part of vegetation in community types (cts), habitat types (hts), plant
associations (pas), forest ecosystem associations (eas), or riparian
site types (rst) are listed below:

Coniferous forest habitat types of northern Utah [51].
Forest habitat types of eastern Idaho-western Wyoming [70].
Forest habitat types of Montana [60].
