Name: Quercus macrocarpa / Carex inops ssp. heliophila Woodland
Reference: Midwestern Ecology Working Group...
Description: The Quercus macrocarpa / Carex inops ssp. heliophila type has been provisionally applied to the extensive oak stands in areas underlain by siliceous shales, clay and bentonite on the eastern and northern flanks of the northern Black Hills. Cover of Quercus macrocarpa is quite variable. On the eastern flank of the northern Black Hills, rolling low hills are covered with oak savannas. On the northern flank, slopes are somewhat steeper, and denser stands of oaks are found. In some stands seen during reconnaissance, Carex inops ssp. heliophila was the dominant understory graminoid.
