Name: Quercus palustris - Quercus bicolor - (Liquidambar styraciflua) Mixed Hardwood Forest
Reference: Midwestern Ecology Working Group...
Description: This pin oak - swamp white oak forest community type is found in the central United States. Stands occur on wet, poorly drained depressions. Stands contain a closed to partially open canopy dominated by Quercus palustris and Acer rubrum. Oaks should comprise at least 25% of the dominance in a stand. Other typical canopy associates may dominate, including Liquidambar styraciflua, Nyssa sylvatica, and Quercus bicolor. Other wetland hardwood species can occur, including Acer saccharinum, Betula nigra, Quercus macrocarpa, and Quercus rubra. Shrub and vine species are variable and may include Cornus spp., Lindera benzoin, Parthenocissus quinquefolia, and Sambucus canadensis. Herbaceous species also vary widely.
