Name: Vitis rotundifolia - Ampelopsis arborea - Campsis radicans Vine-Shrubland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association includes vine-dominated vegetation that develops following clearcut logging, blowdowns, and possibly other disturbance in wetlands. <i>Vitis rotundifolia - Ampelopsis arborea - Campsis radicans</i> Vine-Shrubland is dominated by the nominal species. Other species that are present in the vine/liana stratum include <i>Parthenocissus quinquefolia, Toxicodendron radicans ssp. radicans, Bignonia capreolata, Smilax rotundifolia, Berchemia scandens</i>, and likely others. There may exist a limited canopy of <i>Liquidambar styraciflua, Ulmus americana, Quercus</i> spp., <i>Celtis laevigata, Salix</i> spp., and likely other species. Often the weight of the vine coverage will break the stems of woody species before they attain 5 m in height. A limited shrub stratum that contains canopy species as well as <i>Arundinaria gigantea, Ilex decidua, Lindera benzoin, Morella cerifera (= Myrica cerifera)</i>, and others may be present. <i>Carex abscondita, Arisaema dracontium, Eupatorium capillifolium, Boehmeria cylindrica, Cryptotaenia canadensis, Carex retroflexa, Carex lupulina, Polygonum</i> spp., <i>Cyperus</i> spp., and other species are present in the sparse herbaceous layer.
