Communities with dominant calciphilous shrubs and dwarf shrubs, such as Rhododendron adamsii, Caragana jubata, Salix berberifolia, S. reticulata, were referred to the union of Saxifrago oppositifoliae–Rhododendrion adamsii Zibzeev et al. 2018 of the order of Rhododendro-Vaccinietalia Br.-Bl. ex Daniels 1994. |
