Name: Celtis laevigata Coastal Plain Ruderal Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This ruderal forest occurs on highly disturbed soils in coastal areas of Georgia, Louisiana, and possibly additional states of the southeastern coastal plains. <i>Celtis laevigata</i> is the strong canopy dominant in this community. However, exotic tree species such as <i>Melia azedarach, Triadica sebifera</i>, and <i>Morus alba</i> may be scattered throughout. Ground cover species are variable but may include <i>Rubus trivialis</i> and <i>Nekemias arborea</i>. Examples occur near the ports of Savannah (Chatham County, Georgia), and at Jean Lafitte National Park (Jefferson Parish, Louisiana).
