Name: Quercus (rubra, alba, velutina) / Acer barbatum / Asimina triloba Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This mesic oak forest occurs on rich, loessal soils of southern Crowley's Ridge on narrow ridgetops and side slopes. Examples are dominated by a variable combination of <i>Quercus alba, Quercus rubra,</i> and <i>Quercus velutina. </i>Drier stands on the southern portion of Crowley's Ridge, as indicated by the presence of<i> Quercus falcata </i>and <i>Quercus stellata, </i>are covered by other associations [see CEGL004064, CEGL004068]. <i>Acer barbatum </i>and<i> Asimina triloba</i> are diagnostic species of this forest. The former is typically dominant in the subcanopy and the latter is abundant in the shrub layer.
