Name: Pinus strobus - (Acer rubrum) / Osmunda spp. Forest Reference: Midwestern Ecology Working Group... Description: This white pine - red maple swamp forest type is found in the southern Great Lakes region of the United States and Canada. Stands occur on sites with at least a thin layer of organic material on the surface. Glacially deposited sand usually lies beneath the organic layer. The overstory is dominated by Pinus strobus and may contain Acer rubrum, Betula alleghaniensis, Tsuga canadensis, and Ulmus americana. Shrubs can be sparse, but include Alnus incana and Ilex verticillata. Understory species include Carex spp., Osmunda cinnamomea, Osmunda regalis, and Symplocarpus foetidus. Sphagnum spp. may occur as a ground cover. In Wisconsin, common species include Carex folliculata and Thelypteris simulata, which are more common in the eastern United States.  Accession Code: VB.CC.22362.PINUSSTROBUSACE Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
