Name: Populus deltoides - Salix nigra / Mikania scandens Floodplain Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This forest, dominated by <i>Populus deltoides</i> and <i>Salix nigra</i>, occurs in the southeastern Coastal Plain along the fronts and banks of large rivers and on islands where sediment accretes. In addition to the above-listed species, <i>Acer rubrum, Fraxinus pennsylvanica, Salix caroliniana, Betula nigra, Planera aquatica, Ulmus americana, Liquidambar styraciflua, Morus rubra, Juglans nigra</i>, and <i>Acer saccharinum</i> all may be present within their ranges. <i>Ilex opaca var. opaca, Carpinus caroliniana, Lindera benzoin, Cornus drummondii</i>, and <i>Forestiera acuminata</i> may be present in the subcanopy. Depending on the maturity of the occurrence, physiognomy varies. The herb layer is sparse to dense. Distribution is not known. The western limit of distribution also is not known. Work needs to be done to determine more precisely the range of this community and to determine whether it needs to be separated into less widespread types. The ranges of the dominant species in all strata do not preclude its wide distribution.
