Name: Pinus palustris - Quercus marilandica West Gulf Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This upland Pinus palustris woodland of the West Gulf Coastal Plain occurs in limited areas primarily north of the main contiguous belt of pure Pinus palustris vegetation. Sites on which this type occurs are believed to have a clay lens in the soil. Most known examples occur in a matrix of loamy Pinus palustris uplands. These areas were likely not subject to the most frequent fires typically associated with Pinus palustris vegetation. Due to infrequency of natural fires and soil conditions, the overstory may support a natural mixture of Pinus palustris and Pinus echinata and to a lesser extent, Pinus taeda. The presence of Quercus marilandica is characteristic of this type. Typically absent are species of xeric and very dry environments of the region.
