Name: Quercus (rubra, alba, velutina) / Acer barbatum / Asimina triloba Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This mesic oak forest occurs on rich, loessal soils of southern Crowley's Ridge on narrow ridgetops and side slopes. Examples are dominated by a variable combination of Quercus alba, Quercus rubra, and Quercus velutina. Drier stands on the southern portion of Crowley's Ridge, as indicated by the presence of Quercus falcata and Quercus stellata, are covered by other associations [see CEGL004064, CEGL004068]. Acer barbatum and Asimina triloba are diagnostic species of this forest. The former is typically dominant in the subcanopy and the latter is abundant in the shrub layer.
