Name: A.1827
Reference: EcoArt 2002
Description: This alliance consists of vegetation dominated by ~Umbilicaria mammulata$, of relatively moist rock outcrops. This vegetation occurs where periodic seepage occurs on acidic rock outcrops. Individual occurrences can be as large as an acre. Vascular plants are generally sparse or absent, though trees of adjacent forest communities often shade the outcrop community for much of the day.
