Name: Chrysoma pauciflosculosa - Paronychia erecta Dwarf-shrubland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association represents Florida Panhandle coastal scrub woody-goldenrod stands. This vegetation is found on near-coastal dunes, and is usually strongly dominated by Chrysoma pauciflosculosa, usually with a mixture of Paronychia erecta. The short-statured vegetation ranges from fairly dense to open (sometimes less than 25% shrub cover, but all placed here). This type represents a later successional phase of upland dune vegetation in northwest Florida occurring especially in Bay, Escambia, and Okaloosa counties, but also found in Franklin and Gulf counties, and in some areas of southern Mississippi. More chronically or recently disturbed dunes support communities dominated by herbaceous species, and later successional dunes are dominated by Ceratiola ericoides. Other characteristic species include Galactia microphylla (within its range), Polygonella gracilis, Polygonella polygama, and Schizachyrium maritimum. Cladonia leporina is a typical lichen component.
