Name: Asplenium montanum Sparsely Vegetated Alliance Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This alliance includes near-vertical to overhanging cliffs, dry to moist, with crevices, generally with very little vascular vegetation, and little nonvascular vegetation, with Asplenium montanum as a characteristic component. This community occurs on a number of different rock types, including sandstone, quartzite, gneiss, schist, phyllite, but all are acidic (pH of soils in crevices is usually less than 4.0). Asplenium montanum is a characteristic species in stands of this type, although it may not have high cover and will not necessarily even be present. Heuchera parviflora and Silene rotundifolia are equally characteristic and diagnostic.  Accession Code: VB.CC.18215.ASPLENIUMMONTAN Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
