Name: Platanus occidentalis - (Betula nigra, Salix spp.) Temporarily Flooded Woodland Alliance Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: These woodlands occur on wet flats and high-energy rivershores; they are naturally or artificially disturbed and therefore maintain an open canopy. These stands are typically dominated by some combination of Platanus occidentalis, Betula nigra, Salix nigra, and Salix caroliniana. In addition to the nominal species, the canopy may include Acer negundo and Acer rubrum. The physiognomic expression of this vegetation is highly variable; some examples have a substantial shrubby component. East of the Mississippi River, most vegetation dominated by these nominal species is accommodated the Betula nigra - (Platanus occidentalis) Temporarily Flooded Forest Alliance (A.280) and/or the Salix nigra Temporarily Flooded Forest Alliance (A.297).  Accession Code: VB.CC.28502.PLATANUSOCCIDEN Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
