Name: Pinus palustris / Quercus laevis - Quercus incana / Aristida beyrichiana - Baptisia perfoliata Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association occurs in sandhills of the South Atlantic Coastal Plain of eastern and central Georgia, adjacent South Carolina, and northeastern Florida. <i>Pinus palustris</i> forms an open to closed canopy. A scrub oak stratum of <i>Quercus laevis, Quercus incana</i>, and less typically <i>Quercus margarettiae</i> can manifest itself as a subcanopy or as a shrub layer, depending on fire regime, and occasional individuals may reach the canopy. The shrub layer can be sparse to dense and may contain <i>Diospyros virginiana, Gaylussacia dumosa (= var. dumosa), Vaccinium stamineum, Sassafras albidum, Toxicodendron pubescens, Hypericum hypericoides</i>, and scrub oak sprouts. Dominants of the herbaceous stratum include <i>Aristida beyrichiana, Schizachyrium scoparium, Gelsemium sempervirens</i>, and <i>Tephrosia virginiana</i>. Other characteristic herbs may include <i>Baptisia perfoliata, Cnidoscolus stimulosus, Dichanthelium</i> sp., <i>Eriogonum tomentosum, Euphorbia</i> sp., <i>Nolina georgiana, Pityopsis aspera var. adenolepis (= Pityopsis adenolepis), Polygonella americana, Solidago odora var. odora, Sporobolus junceus</i>, and <i>Stylisma patens</i>.
