Name: Gleditsia triacanthos Woodland Alliance Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This alliance covers successional Appalachian and interior woodlands typically dominated by Gleditsia triacanthos and Ulmus spp., along with a variety of hardwoods and gymnosperms. These successional woodlands typically have a total canopy cover between 25 and 50%. The canopy species vary greatly, but Gleditsia triacanthos is always present (in variable amounts), and Ulmus alata or Ulmus rubra is usually present. Other species that may occur in this woodland are Juniperus virginiana var. virginiana, Pinus virginiana, Celtis occidentalis, Celtis laevigata var. laevigata, Liriodendron tulipifera, Liquidambar styraciflua, Juglans nigra, Fraxinus americana, Quercus alba, Quercus stellata, Quercus velutina, Quercus rubra, and Carya spp. Common shrubs are Rhus copallinum and Rubus spp. This successional type results from heavy grazing or other severe disturbance.  Accession Code: VB.CC.28423.GLEDITSIATRIACA Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
