Name: Uniola paniculata - (Panicum amarum) - Croton punctatus Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Barbour, M. G., M. Rejmanek, A. ...
Description: This is a coastal beach or dune grassland community of the Gulf Coast of Texas. <i>Uniola paniculata</i> is typically dominant or codominant with <i>Croton punctatus, </i><i>Heterotheca subaxillaris</i>, and <i>Ipomoea imperati (= Ipomoea stolonifera)</i>. Associated species that may have high cover include <i>Chamaecrista fasciculata</i> and <i>Paspalum monostachyum</i>. This vegetation occupies excessively drained sands on partially stabilized dunes of the coastal barrier islands and patches of mainland Gulf shoreline. This vegetation grades into <i>Schizachyrium littorale (= Schizachyrium scoparium ssp. littorale) - Paspalum monostachyum</i>-dominated grasslands on the barrier flat.
