Name: Hypericum lissophloeus Shrubland Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This association represents ponds in Bay and Washington counties in the Panhandle of Florida, dominated by Hypericum lissophloeus. This species is a narrow endemic found in these counties only, but where present may form a shrubland (1-4 m tall), of varying density along the margins of certain depressions. These depressions have been called sinkholes or sandhill ponds. They are apparently of karstic origin but have extensive sandy soils covering the margins and, therefore, exhibit little direct evidence of calcareous conditions or evidence of limestone. Examples may be seasonally flooded to depths of as much as 1.5 m deep, but they dry down regularly as well. These are fairly large, steep-sided depressions with as much as 30 m elevation change from rim (sandhill) to center. Other shrub species include Chrysoma pauciflosculosa, Hypericum reductum, and Lupinus westianus var. westianus. Typical herbs include Panicum virgatum, Andropogon glaucopsis, Andropogon capillipes, Panicum hemitomon, Centella erecta, Dichanthelium spp., Lachnocaulon minus, Ludwigia suffruticosa, and Eleocharis spp. Other herbs may include Chrysopsis lanuginosa, Drosera filiformis, Drosera brevifolia (= Drosera leucantha), Eriocaulon spp., Rhexia mariana var. mariana, Rhexia salicifolia, Syngonanthus flavidulus, and Xyris baldwiniana.  Accession Code: VB.CC.24992.HYPERICUMLISSOP Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
