Name: Pinus palustris / Quercus falcata / Erythrina herbacea / Aristida condensata Woodland Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This subxeric association represents upland longleaf pine woodlands of isolated sand ridges of the highlands physiographic province of the northern Florida peninsula and may be remnants of formally widespread mixed pine-hardwood woodland of this region, colloquially known as "Red Oak Woods." Soils are sandy with high calcium content and low silt content. The open canopy is dominated by <i>Pinus palustris</i>, while the subcanopy layer is characteristically dominated by mesic upland hardwood species, including <i>Quercus falcata, Carya tomentosa, Quercus stellata, Vaccinium arboreum, Vaccinium stamineum</i>, and <i>Morella cerifera</i>. <i>Erythrina herbacea</i> is a particularly diagnostic shrub species. The ground cover of this association is notable for its lack of <i>Aristida beyrichiana</i> as the dominant bunchgrass. Ground cover indicators of this community are species typical of mesic and subxeric woodlands, such as <i>Ageratina aromatica, Andropogon</i> spp., <i>Aristida condensata, Aristida lanosa, Clitoria mariana, Cyperus plukenetii, Dichanthelium aciculare, Dichanthelium oligosanthes, Pteridium aquilinum, Solidago odora, Sorghastrum secundum, Sporobolus clandestinus</i>, and <i>Tridens carolinianus</i>.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:35441-{677EF323-1D0D-405F-9FD9-54F527AD0EF7} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 5
