Name: Platanus occidentalis - Fraxinus pennsylvanica - Celtis laevigata - (Liquidambar styraciflua) Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association includes forests of second ridges of big river floodplains in the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain. Stands are typically dominated by Platanus occidentalis, Fraxinus pennsylvanica, and Celtis laevigata, possibly with Liquidambar styraciflua. In addition, Acer negundo is common in most occurrences, and Fraxinus pennsylvanica may be scarce. Most examples are likely to have had substantial removal of Liquidambar styraciflua. Additional information from Tom Foti and Susan Carr to be added later.
