Name: Pinus palustris / Quercus marilandica / Panicum virgatum Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This West Gulf Coastal Plain association is comprised of an open to very open, typically stunted, <i>Pinus palustris</i> canopy above a very open hardwood subcanopy, comprised largely of <i>Quercus marilandica</i>. This type tends to have an open, herbaceous-dominated understory in which shrubs occur only sporadically. <i>Panicum virgatum</i> is the dominant herbaceous species, which along with other grasses (<i>Sporobolus</i> sp., <i>Dichanthelium</i> spp.) form a nearly continuous grassy ground cover. A number of other herbaceous species are present which are suggestive of mesic but not particularly dry conditions, especially <i>Stenanthium gramineum</i>.
