Name: Prosopis glandulosa var. glandulosa - Acacia greggii - Celtis ehrenbergiana / Paspalum setaceum - Urochloa ciliatissima Scrub Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This woodland occurs on deep, sandy to loamy Alfisols on undulating uplands in the drier (more western) portions of the South Texas Sand Plain. Woody vegetation generally occurs in mottes covering a small percentage of any site and includes <i>Prosopis glandulosa var. glandulosa, Acacia greggii</i>, and <i>Celtis ehrenbergiana</i>. The ground layer is variable, depending on grazing pressure and season, with <i>Urochloa ciliatissima, Cenchrus spinifex, Eragrostis secundiflora, Eragrostis sessilispica, Chloris cucullata, Paspalum setaceum, Aristida purpurea</i> (<i>sensu lato</i>), and <i>Setaria</i> spp. usually present; more palatable species such as <i>Sporobolus cryptandrus</i> and <i>Vaseyochloa multinervosa</i> may be locally common in areas of lighter grazing. A large number of annual forbs are present during wet periods (late winter-spring).  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:35973-{6BC0EB04-56AF-4EB9-BE09-3596A0DA5AC3} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
