Name: Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola / Morella cerifera / Kosteletzkya virginica - Bacopa monnieri Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: Infrequently flooded brackish (oligohaline) woodlands along tidal creeks about 25-35 km by river distance from the ocean. The canopy density is variable, but averages open (from 10-80% closure), and 4-10 m tall, strongly dominated by Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola, with widely scattered emergent Pinus taeda, Acer rubrum var. trilobum, Ulmus americana, and Persea palustris. The shrub layer is open to fairly dense, dominated by Morella cerifera (= Myrica cerifera), with less frequent Persea palustris and Baccharis halimifolia. Mucky openings are dominated by Kosteletzkya virginica, Bacopa monnieri, Pluchea rosea, Samolus sp., Eleocharis spp., and Cyperus spp. Other characteristic species include Hydrocotyle sp., Cladium mariscus ssp. jamaicense, Typha angustifolia, Lythrum lineare, Solidago sempervirens var. mexicana, Toxicodendron radicans, Schoenoplectus robustus (= Scirpus robustus), and others. This community occurs in areas of up to 40 hectares, and grades to marshes and uplands.
