Name: Dalea foliosa - Mecardonia acuminata - Mitreola petiolata Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This herbaceous community is a zonal component of Central Basin Cedar Glades. It occupies small areas along ephemeral streams, where the vegetation is rooted in thin soil over limestone. Stands contain <i>Mecardonia acuminata, Dalea foliosa, Mitreola petiolata, Rudbeckia triloba</i>, and <i>Ludwigia microcarpa</i>, along with various graminoids and nonvascular plants. Sites are seasonally saturated, becoming drier during the heat of summer, when moisture primarily comes from rainstorm events. <i>Dalea foliosa</i> is included in the name to indicate its range and rarity, but this species is not necessarily in all examples of the community; the element name may be revised.
