Name: (Pinus palustris) - Quercus stellata - Quercus incana / Tetragonotheca ludoviciana Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This woodland occurs on narrow, topographically isolated, convex ridgetops and interstream divides in the West Gulf Coastal Plain within a landscape heavily dominated by Pinus palustris. The canopy is strongly dominated by Quercus stellata with lesser amounts of Pinus palustris, Quercus incana and Quercus marilandica present. Pinus palustris stems although not usually dominant, may be much taller than the hardwoods. The sparse to patchy understory includes some species indicative of xeric moisture status in the region, such as Stylisma pickeringii, Tradescantia reverchonii, Tragia urticifolia, Croton argyranthemus, Froelichia floridana, and Cnidoscolus texanus.
