Name: Gleditsia aquatica - Carya aquatica Forest Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This bottomland hardwood association, primarily distributed in the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain, is typically dominated by Gleditsia aquatica and Carya aquatica. Some occurrences may contain no other canopy species. Stands of this type vary from those with 90% or more Carya aquatica with a heavy vine component and a subcanopy/shrub layer with Planera aquatica and Forestiera acuminata (especially at the juncture of the Red and Mississippi rivers) to those with some Quercus lyrata and Celtis laevigata. This vegetation type occurs in sites just slightly higher and drier than those that are dominated by Taxodium distichum and Nyssa aquatica, and slightly lower and wetter than those dominated by Quercus lyrata.  Accession Code: VB.CC.19644.GLEDITSIAAQUATI Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
