Name: Hypericum reductum / Aristida stricta Dwarf-shrubland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association represents very small-scale and localized depressions or swales in extremely xeric sandhills in southeastern North Carolina. Hypericum reductum dominates the shrub layer, while other scattered shrubs such as Lyonia mariana and Gaylussacia dumosa (= var. dumosa) may be present. Aristida stricta and Andropogon spp. are the dominant herbs. In this landscape, Aristida stricta is restricted to this community, apparently because of the extremely xeric conditions of the surrounding sandhill community [see Pinus palustris / Quercus laevis / Aristida purpurascens - Stipulicida setacea - (Rhynchospora megalocarpa, Selaginella acanthonota) Woodland (CEGL003590)].
