Name: Pinus palustris - (Pinus taeda) / Schizachyrium scoparium - Rhynchosia reniformis Woodland Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This longleaf pine woodland occurs on upland flats on sandy loam soils of the inner Atlantic Coastal Plain. This community has an open to scattered to mostly closed canopy of <i>Pinus palustris</i> and/or <i>Pinus taeda</i> (the latter because of fire suppression and landscape alteration), a moderate to dense shrub layer dominated by dry-mesic tree species listed above, as well as more typical shrub species, such as <i>Vaccinium stamineum, Gaylussacia frondosa, Morella cerifera, Viburnum dentatum, Rhus copallinum</i>, and likely others. The herbaceous dominant is <i>Schizachyrium scoparium</i>, but other species typical of savanna vegetation are present, including <i>Eupatorium rotundifolium, Chrysopsis mariana, Rhynchosia reniformis, Solidago rugosa, Solidago odora, Seymeria cassioides</i>, and <i>Pityopsis graminifolia</i>. This association is documented in the Mid-Atlantic Coastal Plain, in the "wiregrass gap" of central South Carolina. This description is based on degraded stands documented at Congaree National Park, and may need alteration based on additional information. This type is intended to cover the concept of mesic to dry-mesic longleaf pine woodlands of the "wiregrass gap," i.e., the area in South Carolina between the range of <i>Aristida stricta</i> and <i>Aristida beyrichiana</i>.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:35926-{59200978-6F63-4D72-B2D3-5E363D579121} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 36
