Name: Quercus prinus - Pinus palustris Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This is an open-canopy forest found near the southern terminus of the Ridge and Valley in Alabama. Stands are dominated by Quercus prinus with a significant component of Pinus palustris present. Stands are found on north- and northwest-facing slopes adjacent to dry or xeric ridgetops dominated by more pure stands of longleaf pine. This appears to be a naturally occurring mixed composition forest found in somewhat fire-sheltered areas.
