Name: (Pinus palustris) - Quercus stellata - Quercus marilandica - Carya texana / Tragia urens Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This woodland occurs on narrow, topographically isolated, convex ridgetops and interstream divides on the West Gulf Coastal Plain within a landscape heavily dominated by Pinus palustris. The canopy is strongly dominated by Quercus stellata. Lesser amounts of Carya texana, Pinus palustris, and Quercus marilandica are present in most examples. Pinus palustris often occurs in the canopy and, although not usually dominant, may be much taller than the hardwoods which are present. A fairly well-developed midstory is present, with Quercus marilandica, Pinus taeda, Cornus florida, Carya texana, and a variety of shrubs, including Callicarpa americana, Ilex vomitoria, Sassafras albidum, Viburnum rufidulum, Persea borbonia, and Magnolia grandiflora. This community most often occurs as inclusions within a matrix of Pinus palustris / Schizachyrium scoparium - Rudbeckia grandiflora var. alismifolia Woodland (CEGL003572).
