Name: Asplenium ruta-muraria - Pellaea atropurpurea Sparsely Vegetated Alliance
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This alliance includes dry to rather moist limestone and dolomite outcrops, usually shaded by trees rooted in adjacent forested communities. Vascular and nonvascular vegetation are sparse in stands of this alliance. Calciphilic herbs, such as Asplenium ruta-muraria, Pellaea atropurpurea, Pellaea glabella ssp. glabella, Asplenium resiliens, Aquilegia canadensis, and others occupy suitable crevices. Moister microhabitats of the crevice may have mosses such as Anomodon rostratus and Anomodon attenuatus.
