Name: Pinus palustris / Serenoa repens - Vaccinium myrsinites / Aristida beyrichiana - Sporobolus curtissii Woodland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This <i>Pinus palustris</i> flatwoods community is found in the South Atlantic Coastal Plain of northeastern Florida and southern Georgia, ranging into southern South Carolina. It is typified by a very open or naturally sparse canopy of <i>Pinus palustris</i>. Some stands have relatively minor amounts of <i>Pinus elliottii</i> present as well. <i>Sporobolus curtissii</i> is diagnostic of this type, at least relative to other <i>Pinus palustris</i> flatwoods in northern Florida. <i>Aristida beyrichiana</i> is also common. The shrub layer is well-developed and often dense, usually dominated by some combination of <i>Serenoa repens, Vaccinium myrsinites, Gaylussacia tomentosa, Gaylussacia dumosa, Ilex glabra, Lyonia lucida, Quercus minima</i>, and lesser amounts of <i>Quercus pumila</i>. In some sites, the herb layer is poorly developed and not very diverse; in other areas <i>Sporobolus curtissii</i> and <i>Aristida beyrichiana</i> are abundant and other herbs are diverse.
