Name: Pinus palustris - Quercus marilandica West Gulf Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This upland <i>Pinus palustris</i> woodland of the West Gulf Coastal Plain occurs in limited areas primarily north of the main contiguous belt of pure <i>Pinus palustris</i> vegetation. Sites on which this type occurs are believed to have a clay lens in the soil. Most known examples occur in a matrix of loamy <i>Pinus palustris</i> uplands. These areas were likely not subject to the most frequent fires typically associated with <i>Pinus palustris</i> vegetation. Due to infrequency of natural fires and soil conditions, the overstory may support a natural mixture of <i>Pinus palustris</i> and <i>Pinus echinata</i> and to a lesser extent, <i>Pinus taeda</i>. The presence of <i>Quercus marilandica</i> is characteristic of this type. Typically absent are species of xeric and very dry environments of the region.
