Name: Platanus occidentalis - Fraxinus pennsylvanica - Celtis laevigata - (Liquidambar styraciflua) Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association includes forests of second ridges of big river floodplains in the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain of Arkansas and Mississippi. Stands are typically dominated by <i>Platanus occidentalis, Fraxinus pennsylvanica</i>, and <i>Celtis laevigata</i>, possibly with <i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i>. In addition, <i>Acer negundo</i> is common in most occurrences, and <i>Fraxinus pennsylvanica</i> may be scarce. Most examples are likely to have had substantial removal of <i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i>. Additional information from Tom Foti and Susan Carr to be added later.
