Reference:
Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description:
This forest community occurs on deep sandy soils in fire-protected slopes and ravines of the South Atlantic Coastal Plain, associated with a matrix of sandhill longleaf pine woodlands and associated wetlands. Wetlands, relatively steep topography, and sandstone rock outcrops apparently provide fire protection. This community is dominated by a mix of oak and hickory species, including Quercus alba, Quercus rubra, Quercus stellata, Quercus margarettiae, Quercus coccinea, Quercus velutina, Carya glabra, Carya pallida, Carya alba, and Nyssa sylvatica. The shrub and woody-vine stratum is dominated by Vaccinium pallidum but also includes Calycanthus floridus, Viburnum acerifolium, Symplocos tinctoria, Kalmia latifolia, Smilax glauca, Prunus serotina var. serotina, Diospyros virginiana, Sassafras albidum, Clethra alnifolia, and Vitis rotundifolia. Herbs are few, including Dichanthelium commutatum, Hexastylis arifolia var. arifolia, Tephrosia virginiana, and Stylisma humistrata.
