Name: Juglans microcarpa / Cladium mariscus ssp. jamaicense Scrub Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This community occurs along streams in canyons of the mountain ranges of Trans-Pecos Texas and the Stockton Plateau, usually on flat-bedded limestone with relatively permanent water. Scattered shrubs or small trees of <i>Juglans microcarpa</i>, and sometimes also <i>Ostrya knowltonii, Baccharis salicifolia</i>, and <i>Fraxinus velutina</i> occur along the streambanks, and on elevated portions of the streambed. <i>Cladium mariscus ssp. jamaicense</i> forms a dense herbaceous layer. This community occurs in association with ~<i>Juglans microcarpa / Sorghastrum nutans</i> Scrub Woodland (CEGL004594)$$, but occupies sites along the streambed which retain ponded water for longer periods of time.
