Observation Narrative	Plot captures the most xeric and open extreme of an extensive lithophytic woodland with mixed dominance by Pinus pungens, Pinus virginiana, and Quercus spp. Deciduous ericads, Schizachyrium scoparium, and other xerophytic herbs are characteristic of the field layer. The dominant lichens on exposed rock surfaces in the plot are Lasallia pensylvanica and Xanthoparmelia conspersa. Plot size was constrainged to 200 sq. m. by cliff-like topography on three sides.
