Name: Taxodium distichum - Nyssa biflora / Fraxinus caroliniana / Lyonia lucida Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association includes very wet forests of the southeastern Coastal Plain in North Carolina and South Carolina that are flooded by river overbank flow for long periods. It occurs along Coastal Plain streams which lack clay sediment, where <i>Nyssa aquatica</i> is not a significant component of the canopy. This community occupies the most acidic and clay-free streams and consequently is found within coarse-sandy landscapes. Forests are dominated by combinations of <i>Nyssa biflora, Taxodium distichum</i>, and <i>Taxodium ascendens</i>.
