Description: This alliance is largely anthropogenic, occurring on sand dunes, old fields, disturbed areas, and pastures. ~Prunus angustifolia$ dominates in clonal thickets. Other characteristic species include ~Andropogon hallii, Bouteloua curtipendula, Gaillardia pulchella, Prunus gracilis$, and ~Rhus aromatica$. In Oklahoma, it is often the result of physical or chemical removal of ~Artemisia filifolia$. In the sandhills of the Georgia Coastal Plain, formerly dominated by ~Pinus palustris$, vegetation of this alliance is generated from degraded or disturbed examples of other communities.
