Name: Nyssa ogeche / Ilex myrtifolia / Carex turgescens - Carex striata Forest
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: Depressional sinkhole wetlands dominated by <i>Nyssa ogeche</i>, occurring in a matrix of pine flatwoods, not associated with river floodplains, in the outer southeastern Coastal Plain of South Carolina and Georgia. <i>Nyssa ogeche</i> is generally strongly dominant, although <i>Taxodium ascendens</i> can also be present. <i>Ilex myrtifolia</i> is often common as a small tree or large shrub. Typical herbaceous species are <i>Carex striata, Carex glaucescens, Carex verrucosa</i>, and <i>Woodwardia virginica</i>. This community is influenced by fire that burns into or through it during drought periods from adjoining pine flatwoods.
