Name: Quercus virginiana - (Pinus taeda) / (Sabal minor, Serenoa repens) Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association represents floodplain forests dominated by Quercus virginiana that have a component of either Serenoa repens or Sabal minor; Pinus taeda may be present or absent. This type is potentially broad-ranging and could occur along the outer Coastal Plain from South Carolina to eastern Texas. As currently understood, it is known from Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, and Georgia; its status in South Carolina and Texas remains unclear. It includes floodplain forests occurring on older and more recent river levees, dominated by Quercus virginiana. Pinus taeda is codominant in the overstory of some examples and present in most. Conspicuous components of the shrub layer include Sabal minor and Serenoa repens (within its range). Additional information is needed to fully describe the range of variability present in this association and to document its full geographic extent.
