Name: A.738
Reference: EcoArt 2002
Description: This alliance mostly consists of moist upland areas which are dominated by the exotic ~Ligustrum sinense$, with little or no canopy. The density of the shrub layer may be such that there is no development of the herbaceous stratum. ~Ligustrum sinense$ is a serious weedy species in the southeastern United States. It generally occurs as a shrub-layer dominant under tree canopies, especially in floodplains. Such sites are considered degraded occurrences of the equivalent natural forest community.
