Name: Pinus palustris / Quercus laevis - Quercus (incana, margarettiae) / Gaylussacia dumosa / Aristida stricta Woodland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This association is found on fine sandy to loamy soils without a clay layer near the surface, such as on the Lakeland series (Typic Quartzipsamment). <i>Pinus palustris</i> dominates the open canopy. Scrub oaks are a mixture of <i>Quercus laevis, Quercus incana</i>, and <i>Quercus margarettiae</i>. <i>Gaylussacia dumosa (= var. dumosa)</i> and <i>Vaccinium tenellum</i> are the primary shrubs. The herb layer is dominated by <i>Aristida stricta</i> and is lower in diversity than that of other, more mesic, associated longleaf communities. Other typical species include <i>Andropogon ternarius, Schizachyrium scoparium, Carphephorus bellidifolius, Cirsium repandum, Pityopsis graminifolia var. latifolia, Euphorbia ipecacuanhae, Polygonella polygama, Solidago odora var. odora</i>, and <i>Sassafras albidum</i>.
