Name: Pinus rigida / Quercus ilicifolia - Kalmia angustifolia / Pyxidanthera barbulata Woodland Reference: Eastern Ecology Working Group of... Description: Mesic pine barrens vegetation dominated by Pinus rigida with a shrub layer dominated by Quercus ilicifolia. The presence of mesic species such as Kalmia angustifolia, Ilex glabra, Lyonia mariana, Leucothoe racemosa, Clethra alnifolia, Vaccinium corymbosum indicate more mesic conditions such as the higher clay content of the soils, the position adjacent to a wetland, or a water table below the soil surface. Other associates include Pyxidanthera barbulata, Morella pensylvanica (= Myrica pensylvanica), Photinia melanocarpa (= Aronia melanocarpa), Gaultheria procumbens, Carex pensylvanica and Pteridium aquilinum. In New Jersey, Xerophyllum asphodeloides and Calamovilfa brevipilis are also found in this vegetation.  Accession Code: VB.CC.22510.PINUSRIGIDAQUER Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
