Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This woodland of the upper Coastal Prairie region of Texas occurs within a matrix of coastal grassland. It is characterized by an open, patchy canopy with grass-dominated openings. The overstory is dominated by Quercus virginiana and Carya illinoinensis with lesser amounts of Celtis laevigata var. laevigata, Quercus stellata, and Ulmus alata. The understory typically includes Ilex vomitoria, Crataegus spp., Diospyros virginiana, and Sideroxylon sp. Common herbaceous species include Paspalum plicatulum, Axonopus spp., and Schizachyrium scoparium. This community occurs over heavy-textured, neutral or basic soils on elevated areas within the coastal prairie. It is found in floodplains, but is rarely flooded.
