Name: Pinus palustris / Quercus laevis - Quercus margarettae / Licania michauxii / Aristida beyrichiana Woodland
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association occurs on deep, infertile, coarse sands in the South Atlantic Coastal Plain and East Gulf Coastal Plain of Georgia. <i>Pinus palustris</i> forms the open to sparse canopy and a dense scrub oak subcanopy is codominated by <i>Quercus laevis</i> and <i>Quercus margarettae</i>. Constant and indicative shrubs include <i>Licania michauxii, Opuntia humifusa</i>, and <i>Serenoa repens</i>. The herbaceous layer is dominated by <i>Aristida beyrichiana</i>, but other characteristic and abundant herbs include <i>Andropogon virginicus, Aristida purpurascens var. virgata, Aureolaria pectinata, Bulbostylis</i> spp., <i>Croton argyranthemus, Dichanthelium acuminatum, Eriogonum tomentosum, Eupatorium compositifolium, Liatris tenuifolia, Sorghastrum secundum, Sporobolus junceus, Tephrosia virginiana</i>, and <i>Tillandsia usneoides</i>. Species richness is relatively low, especially compared to moister longleaf pine vegetation types.
