This type may have a somewhat longer hydroperiod than other types in this or other temporarily flooded alliances, but it is not seasonally flooded. It is distinguished from some related types by lacking a significant component of levee species. The canopy is dominated by <i>Quercus laurifolia</i> and <i>Quercus lyrata</i>. The subcanopy characteristically contains <i>Carpinus caroliniana</i> and <i>Persea palustris</i>. One prominent shrub is <i>Vaccinium elliottii</i>. Additional floristic information is needed. Stands of this community have a significant component of <i>Quercus lyrata</i> and generally lack a significant component of <i>Pinus taeda</i>.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:33515-{05C5431A-25C9-470A-861B-4012B618BDC4} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 25
