Name: Chrysoma pauciflosculosa - Paronychia erecta Dwarf-shrubland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This coastal scrub woody-goldenrod dwarf-shrubland is restricted to near-coastal dunes of the Florida Panhandle, Mississippi, and possibly adjacent Alabama. Vegetation is usually strongly dominated by <i>Chrysoma pauciflosculosa</i>, often with a mixture of <i>Paronychia erecta</i>. The short-statured vegetation ranges from fairly dense to open (sometimes less than 25% shrub cover, but all placed here). This type represents a later successional phase of upland dune vegetation in northwest Florida occurring especially in Bay, Escambia, and Okaloosa counties, but also found in Franklin and Gulf counties, and in some areas of southern Mississippi. More chronically or recently disturbed dunes support communities dominated by herbaceous species, and later successional dunes are dominated by <i>Ceratiola ericoides</i>. Other characteristic species include <i>Galactia microphylla</i> (within its range), <i>Polygonella gracilis, Polygonella polygama</i>, and <i>Schizachyrium maritimum</i>. <i>Cladonia leporina</i> is a typical lichen component.
