Name: Acer rubrum / Sambucus canadensis / Ampelopsis arborea - Sicyos angulatus Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association occurs on tidal ridges on the edge of estuarine sounds, and is occasionally flooded by wind tides. Canopy dominants are Acer rubrum and Acer negundo, with lesser amounts of Nyssa aquatica, Taxodium distichum, and Ulmus rubra. Various woody vines, including Ampelopsis arborea, Sicyos angulatus, Parthenocissus quinquefolia, Vitis rotundifolia, Matelea gonocarpos, Smilax rotundifolia, Clematis crispa, and Toxicodendron radicans, are abundant and form dense tangles. Sambucus canadensis is the most abundant shrub. Because of natural disturbance events resulting from shoreline position, this community has a battered, uneven canopy and heavy development of woody vines.
