Name: Ulmus alata - Liquidambar styraciflua / Celtis laevigata / Trepocarpus aethusae Calcareous Floodplain Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This calcareous floodplain forest occurs along the southwestern periphery of the Upper West Gulf Coastal Plain ecoregion of eastern Texas. Presumably this type has been degraded by past land uses, probably including 'high-grading' (selective removal of commercially valuable oaks). In addition to the nominals, <i>Quercus nigra</i> also reaches the overstory. <i>Sabal minor</i> may be abundant in the understory along with scattered <i>Crataegus spathulata, Forestiera ligustrina, Ulmus crassifolia, Symphoricarpos orbiculatus, Arundinaria gigantea, Parthenocissus quinquefolia</i>, and <i>Celtis laevigata</i>. <i>Geum canadense, Ruellia caroliniensis, Arisaema dracontium, Carex blanda, Carex albolutescens, Carex cherokeensis, Carex amphibola, Carex abscondita</i> may also be common.
