Name: Pinus palustris - Pinus serotina / Ilex glabra - Lyonia lucida / Ctenium aromaticum Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This saturated longleaf pine - pond pine woodland community occurs in the East Gulf Coastal Plain Fall-line Sandhills of Georgia and possibly adjacent Alabama. Stands are dominated by herbs and shrubs characteristic of saturated environments, with scattered Pinus palustris and Pinus serotina. Herbs and shrubs are interspersed, with relative dominance varying with length of fire-return time and fire intensity. The shrub zone is characterized by the presence or partial dominance of Ilex glabra and Lyonia lucida. Other characteristic species are Morella cerifera (= Myrica cerifera), Morella caroliniensis (= Myrica heterophylla), Persea palustris, Magnolia virginiana, and Ilex coriacea. Some characteristic herbaceous species include Ctenium aromaticum, Xyris sp., Osmunda cinnamomea, Pteridium aquilinum, Rhexia sp., Sarracenia rubra, Muhlenbergia capillaris, and Eupatorium rotundifolium. This saturated longleaf pine - pond pine woodland community occurs in wet mineral soils in zones between drier, sandhills longleaf pine communities and saturated streamside forests dominated by Nyssa biflora.
