Name: Quercus geminata - Quercus myrtifolia - Serenoa repens - Persea borbonia Shrubland Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: 'Coastal scrub' community of northeastern Florida, ranging from Duval County south to Cape Canaveral in northern Brevard County. Other characteristic species include Morella cerifera (= Myrica cerifera), Quercus chapmanii, Osmanthus americanus, Lyonia ferruginea, Erythrina herbacea, Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola, and Ilex vomitoria. Scrubs in northern Volusia County and on Cape Canaveral have dwarfed Quercus virginiana present along with the usual scrub oaks. This community occurs in a narrow strip near the coast on acid sands. Salt spray blown off the Atlantic Ocean by the prevailing easterly winds probably prevents the formation of a Pinus clausa canopy characteristic of more inland scrubs.  Accession Code: VB.CC.27264.QUERCUSGEMINATA Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
