Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association includes forests dominated by the nominal species on slightly elevated ridges of floodplains primarily in the Atlantic Coastal Plain and the adjacent East Gulf Coastal Plain. The canopy of this successional forest is typically dominated by some combination of <i>Pinus taeda, Liquidambar styraciflua</i>, and <i>Nyssa biflora</i>. A mixture of other bottomland hardwood species may be present which includes <i>Diospyros virginiana, Quercus nigra, Acer rubrum, Quercus michauxii, Quercus laurifolia, Ulmus alata, Carya cordiformis, Ulmus americana, Quercus pagoda, Celtis laevigata, Quercus phellos, Fagus grandifolia, Carya tomentosa</i>, and others. <i>Asimina triloba</i> may be prominent in the understory with <i>Ilex decidua, Carpinus caroliniana, Crataegus viridis, Crataegus spathulata, Ilex opaca</i>, and other species. These forests develop following disturbance and may persist.
