Name: Baccharis halimifolia - Iva frutescens - Morella cerifera - (Ilex vomitoria) Shrubland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This shrubland, dominated by the nominal species, occurs in slightly elevated areas within salt flats and salt marshes as well as in marsh edges throughout much of the East Gulf, South Atlantic, and Mid-Atlantic coastal plains. This community is usually best developed at the upper limit of non-storm tidal inundation, on natural levees deposited by above-normal tides. The most common species are typically Baccharis halimifolia, Morella cerifera (= Myrica cerifera), Iva frutescens ssp. frutescens, Yucca gloriosa, Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola, Lycium carolinianum, Baccharis angustifolia, and Ilex vomitoria. Other species which may be present include Borrichia frutescens, Fimbristylis castanea, Limonium carolinianum, and Solidago sempervirens.
