Name: Quercus palustris - Acer rubrum Temporarily Flooded Forest Alliance
Reference: Eastern Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This alliance comprises floodplain forest of smaller rivers and headwaters in the eastern United States. Canopy dominants include Quercus palustris and Acer rubrum. Canopy associates depend on geography and include Fraxinus pennsylvanica, Ulmus americana, and occasionally Quercus bicolor and Platanus occidentalis in the north and Quercus phellos and Liquidambar styraciflua in the south. Shrub and herb layers tend to be well-developed in the northern portion of the range and more variable in the south.
