Name: Quercus virginiana - (Pinus taeda) / (Sabal minor, Serenoa repens) Swamp Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association represents floodplain forests dominated by <i>Quercus virginiana</i> that have a component of either <i>Serenoa repens</i> or <i>Sabal minor</i>; <i>Pinus taeda</i> may be present or absent. This type is potentially broad-ranging and could occur along the Outer Coastal Plain from South Carolina to eastern Texas. As currently understood, it is known from Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, and Georgia; its status in South Carolina and Texas remains unclear. It includes floodplain forests occurring on older and more recent river levees, dominated by <i>Quercus virginiana</i>. <i>Pinus taeda</i> is codominant in the overstory of some examples and present in most. Conspicuous components of the shrub layer include <i>Sabal minor</i> and <i>Serenoa repens</i> (within its range). Additional information is needed to fully describe the range of variability present in this association and to document its full geographic extent.
