Name: Quercus (rubra, alba, velutina) / Acer floridanum / Asimina triloba Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This mesic oak forest occurs on rich, loessal soils of southern Crowley's Ridge, Arkansas, on narrow ridgetops and sideslopes. Examples are dominated by a variable combination of <i>Quercus alba, Quercus rubra</i>, and <i>Quercus velutina</i>. Drier stands on the southern portion of Crowley's Ridge, as indicated by the presence of <i>Quercus falcata</i> and <i>Quercus stellata</i>, are covered by other associations [see ~<i>Quercus stellata - Quercus falcata / Ostrya virginiana</i> Forest (CEGL004064)$$, ~<i>Quercus alba - Quercus falcata - Quercus velutina / Ostrya virginiana</i> Forest (CEGL004068)$$]. <i>Acer floridanum</i> and <i>Asimina triloba</i> are diagnostic species of this forest. The former is typically dominant in the subcanopy and the latter is abundant in the shrub layer.
