Name: Pinus banksiana - (Pinus resinosa) / Corylus cornuta Forest Reference: Midwestern Ecology Working Group... Description: This jack pine forest community type is found in upper midwestern United States and possibly adjacent Canada. Stands are found on flat to rolling topography, such as glaciofluvial and lacustrine deposits, moraines, and other glacial features. The soils are sandy loams, fine sands, and loamy sands, shallow to deep, and with low organic content. The overstory of this forest community is dominated by moderately to densely spaced conifers with a scattering of deciduous trees. The trees in this community are typically 15-20 m tall. Pinus banksiana is often the sole dominant. Pinus resinosa and Betula papyrifera are canopy or subcanopy associates. The shrub layer contains abundant Corylus cornuta, along with Amelanchier spp. and Viburnum rafinesquianum.  Accession Code: VB.CC.24566.PINUSBANKSIANAP Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
