Name: Ilex glabra - Lyonia lucida - Zenobia pulverulenta Shrubland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: Mixed evergreen-deciduous and deciduous low pocosins of peat domes (ombrotrophic blanket bogs) of the Outer and Middle Coastal Plain of North Carolina and possibly South Carolina, with shrub height (0.5-2 m) maintained by extremely poor nutrient status and (secondarily) by occasional fire. Stands are dominated by <i>Ilex glabra, Lyonia lucida</i>, and <i>Zenobia pulverulenta</i>. Very scattered <i>Pinus serotina</i> are present (less than 10%), these sometimes of medium stature. This association includes low pocosins of the Dare County peninsula and large peat-filled Carolina bays of the Bladen and Cumberland counties area. Other characteristic species can include <i>Kalmia cuneata, Kalmia carolina, Photinia pyrifolia (= Aronia arbutifolia), Sarracenia flava, Woodwardia virginica, Carex striata var. striata, Rhynchospora fascicularis</i>, and <i>Lysimachia asperulifolia</i>.
