Name: Pinus palustris - Pinus serotina / Quercus chapmanii - Quercus myrtifolia - Quercus geminata - Lyonia ferruginea Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association occurs on Leon soils on barrier islands, with 30-40% pine cover and 100% shrubby oak cover (nearly impenetrable). The natural fire frequency is believed to be from 20-30 years. The open canopy of this association is dominated by a combination of <i>Pinus palustris</i> and <i>Pinus serotina</i>, with <i>Quercus chapmanii, Quercus myrtifolia, Quercus geminata</i>, and <i>Lyonia ferruginea</i> in the subcanopy or shrub layers. Other characteristic species include <i>Serenoa repens</i>. This naturally rare type is restricted to the barrier islands of Georgia and Florida, such as Big Talbot Island, Florida, and probably Sapelo Island, Georgia.
