Name: Muhlenbergia capillaris Herbaceous Alliance
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This alliance includes upland coastal prairies of the West Gulf Coastal Plain (and possibly more widespread inland) dominated by Muhlenbergia capillaris. Stands of this alliance occur on rolling to flat upland sites. Muhlenbergia capillaris is the strong dominant; Spartina spartinae can also be common. Baccharis halimifolia may occur as scattered individuals to moderately dense patches as an invader of disturbed or overgrazed sites. As broadly defined, this alliance may actually include areas dominated by Muhlenbergia filipes or mixtures of Muhlenbergia filipes and Muhlenbergia capillaris, as well.
