Name: (Pinus palustris) / Schizachyrium scoparium - Bigelowia nuttallii / Cladonia spp. Grassland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association represents Catahoula sandstone glades of western Louisiana that also rarely occur in adjacent Texas. Scattered mature <i>Pinus palustris</i> may be present, but the community is fundamentally dominated by herbs and nonvascular plants. The herbaceous cover is depauperate and sparse; with many patches of exposed rock, mineral soils, and <i>Cladonia</i> lichens. This community does not possess a strong <i>Quercus</i> component, although it may have scattered individuals.
