Name: Cyrilla racemiflora / Xyris fimbriata - Utricularia purpurea - Lycopodiella alopecuroides Scrub
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This shrubland community occurs in seasonally flooded natural depression ponds in the Outer Coastal Plain of South Carolina, occurring in a pine flatwood landscape. <i>Cyrilla racemiflora</i> is the only shrub present through most of the ponds and covers as much as 70% of the pond's area. Scattered, stunted <i>Nyssa biflora</i> may also occur. Prior to seasonal drawdown, these ponds are flooded 6-9 dm deep, and aquatics such as <i>Utricularia purpurea</i> and emergent herbs such as <i>Xyris fimbriata</i> characterize the herbaceous stratum. Following drawdown, the exposed pond bottom may have species such as <i>Lycopodiella alopecuroides, Carex</i> spp., and <i>Juncus</i> sp. Steep rims of the ponds are rimmed with <i>Chamaedaphne calyculata, Gordonia lasianthus, Lyonia lucida</i>, and <i>Smilax laurifolia</i>. These ponds are known from the vicinity of Lewis Ocean Bay Preserve, Horry County, South Carolina.
