Name: Pinus taeda - Quercus stellata / Crataegus spp. Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: These upland <i>Pinus taeda - Quercus stellata</i>-dominated communities occur in the Gulf Coastal Plain, most frequently west of the Mississippi River. Depending upon management history, these stands range from open and woodland-like to fairly closed and dense. The understory varies accordingly from viney (<i>Toxicodendron radicans, Gelsemium sempervirens, Parthenocissus quinquefolia</i>, etc.) to herbaceous (<i>Schizachyrium scoparium</i>, with plentiful legumes and asters). Several <i>Crataegus</i> spp. are often present in the shrub layer of these stands, possibly indicating the rich nutrient status of the soils.
