Name: Pinus palustris / Quercus marilandica / Panicum virgatum Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This West Gulf Coastal Plain association is comprised of an open to very open, typically stunted, Pinus palustris canopy above a very open hardwood subcanopy, comprised largely of Quercus marilandica. This type tends to have an open, herbaceous-dominated understory in which shrubs occur only sporadically. Panicum virgatum is the dominant herbaceous species, which along with other grasses (Sporobolus sp., Dichanthelium spp.) form a nearly continuous grassy ground cover. A number of other herbaceous species are present which are suggestive of mesic but not particularly dry conditions, especially Stenanthium gramineum.
