Description: This calciphilic community occurs on calcareous coastal sands, shell hashes, Amerindian shell middens, and natural shell deposits, from northeastern Florida north to South Carolina (southern Atlantic coast), in maritime-influenced landscapes. The canopy consists of Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola, Sabal palmetto, Celtis laevigata var. laevigata, Zanthoxylum clava-herculis, Quercus virginiana, Osmanthus americanus, and other species. Shrubs are prominent and may include Ilex vomitoria, Yucca aloifolia, Sageretia minutiflora, Forestiera segregata, Frangula caroliniana, Opuntia humifusa var. austrina, and others. Composition is very variable from site to site, depending on environmental conditions and accidents of establishment and persistence.
