Name: Smilax auriculata / Heterotheca subaxillaris - Strophostyles helvula - (Uniola paniculata) Herbaceous Vegetation Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This coastal grassland community occurs in northeastern Florida, ranging from Volusia County, Florida, northwards into Georgia (or South Carolina). In Florida, this community occurs "primarily on the broader barrier islands such as Amelia, Little Talbot, and Anastasia islands" (Johnson and Muller 1993), and "only on prograding coasts" (Johnson and Muller 1993b). The dominance of woody vines and forbs and relative rarity of grasses (Uniola only in 4 of 10 stands, Spartina patens in 2 of 10 stands in northeastern Florida) may separate these communities from related communities in the Carolinas. Other characteristic species recorded from Florida include Triplasis purpurea, Sideroxylon tenax, Yucca gloriosa, Morella cerifera (= Myrica cerifera), Ipomoea imperati, Uniola paniculata, Spartina patens, Hydrocotyle bonariensis, Opuntia pusilla, Opuntia stricta. This community differs from the less woody dune community in the same geographic area, the Uniola paniculata - Hydrocotyle bonariensis Herbaceous Vegetation (CEGL004040).  Accession Code: VB.CC.20964.SMILAXAURICULAT Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
