Name: Quercus virginiana / Vaccinium arboreum - Ilex vomitoria Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association represents one of two inland hammocks or oak domes with a dominant or significant canopy component of Quercus virginiana in Florida and possibly adjacent areas. This type is the more xeric of the two and is characterized by a relatively pure overstory of Quercus virginiana (somewhat more mesic stands with more diverse canopy components such as Quercus hemisphaerica and Quercus nigra are accommodated by CEGL004408). Stands are dominated by Quercus virginiana, sometimes with Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola present in the canopy. Ilex vomitoria and Vaccinium arboreum are present in the shrub layer. Frequently small Cladina/Cladonia-dominated openings are present. Other characteristic species include Scleria triglomerata, Paronychia baldwinii, Cladina evansii, Stipulicida setacea, and Hypericum hypericoides.
