Name: Acer rubrum / Sambucus nigra ssp. canadensis / Nekemias arborea - Sicyos angulatus Tidal Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association occurs in North Carolina on tidal ridges on the edge of estuarine sounds, and is occasionally flooded by wind tides. Canopy dominants are <i>Acer rubrum</i> and <i>Acer negundo</i>, with lesser amounts of <i>Nyssa aquatica, Taxodium distichum</i>, and <i>Ulmus rubra</i>. Various woody vines, including <i>Nekemias arborea, Sicyos angulatus, Parthenocissus quinquefolia, Vitis rotundifolia, Matelea gonocarpos, Smilax rotundifolia, Clematis crispa</i>, and <i>Toxicodendron radicans</i>, are abundant and form dense tangles. <i>Sambucus nigra ssp. canadensis</i> is the most abundant shrub. Because of natural disturbance events resulting from shoreline position, this community has a battered, uneven canopy and heavy development of woody vines.
