Name: Liquidambar styraciflua - Quercus (alba, falcata) Ruderal Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: Stands of this successional forest association are dominated by <i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i> but also support additional species in the overstory such as <i>Quercus alba</i>, <i>Liriodendron tulipifera</i>, and/or <i>Quercus falcata</i>. This forest is somewhat later successional and/or more diverse than pure <i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i> forests [see ~<i>Liquidambar styraciflua </i>Semi-natural Forest (CEGL007216)$$]. This type may arise following disturbance of mixed <i>Quercus - Carya</i> forests. This vegetation type would be more prevalent or more likely to be encountered to the north of the range of <i>Quercus nigra</i>, i.e., in the interior and Piedmont rather than in the Coastal Plain.
