Name: Nyssa biflora - Taxodium ascendens / Ludwigia pilosa - Bacopa caroliniana Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This flatwoods pond community is known from the East Gulf Coastal Plain of Louisiana and possibly Mississippi. The canopy is scattered, with Taxodium ascendens in the wettest areas, and Nyssa biflora in slightly less deeply flooded areas. The herbaceous species occur as a 'flotant,' with species on a fibrous root mat dominated by Ludwigia pilosa and Bacopa caroliniana. Other typical species include Saururus cernuus, Xyris smalliana, Xyris fimbriata, Lachnanthes caroliana, Triadenum walteri, Pluchea rosea, Osmunda regalis var. spectabilis, Woodwardia areolata, Andropogon glomeratus var. hirsutior, Andropogon glaucopsis, Cyrilla racemiflora, and Ptilimnium sp. Hydrology may be altered by impoundment, but this appears to be a community of natural occurrence.
