Name: Nyssa biflora - Acer rubrum var. trilobum - Liriodendron tulipifera / Magnolia virginiana - Asimina triloba / Clethra alnifolia Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This nonriverine swamp forest of the mid-Atlantic Coastal Plain has a closed canopy dominated by Nyssa biflora, Acer rubrum var. trilobum, and Liriodendron tulipifera, with scattered Taxodium distichum and Chamaecyparis thyoides. Characteristic subcanopy species include Magnolia virginiana, Asimina triloba, and Persea palustris. Clethra alnifolia patchily dominates the shrub stratum. Herbaceous species in this community include Dryopteris intermedia and Dryopteris carthusiana. The species composition suggests a higher nutrient status than other associations in this alliance.
