Name: Quercus phellos / Chasmanthium laxum Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This willow oak community occurs on upland, interstream divides in the Upper West Gulf Coastal Plain in slight topographic depressions in eastern Texas, and may range into southern Arkansas and adjacent Louisiana and Oklahoma. The canopy of this forest is dominated, often monospecifically, by a closed yet not densely forested canopy of Quercus phellos. This community is very low in species diversity. Subcanopy, shrub, and ground layer vegetation is usually quite sparse.
