Name: Quercus virginiana - Juniperus virginiana - (Sabal palmetto) Woodland Alliance
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This alliance accommodates calciphilic communities occurring on coastal sands, Amerindian shell middens, and natural shell deposits of the Outer Coastal Plain. Composition varies along a latitudinal gradient; associations have been defined for two separate geographic zones, one of the Atlantic Coast from northern Florida north to Virginia, and another in the Gulf Coast from Florida west to Texas. This vegetation occurs under more severe and unstable conditions than related forests, which are found in the Quercus virginiana - (Sabal palmetto) Forest Alliance (A.55).
