Name: Pinus echinata - Quercus montana Interior Low Plateau Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association represents mixed shortleaf pine - oak forests of the Interior Low Plateau region. This concept includes naturally occurring stands of shortleaf pine at Land Between the Lakes, and possibly other areas of the region. <i>Pinus echinata</i> is the single most important species in this community, although the collective importance of <i>Quercus</i> spp. is greater than that of pine. This community occurs in relatively small patches on ridges and west-facing slopes. More information is needed to document the floristic composition of the understory.
