Name: Quercus falcata - Quercus stellata - (Pinus taeda) West Gulf Coastal Plain Forest Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This association includes predominately hardwood-dominated forests of the West Gulf Coastal Plain and Upper West Gulf Coastal Plain. Stands documented in eastern Texas vary somewhat in moisture status and range in composition from those strongly dominated by <i>Quercus falcata</i> in higher landscape positions to nearly equal ratios of <i>Quercus falcata</i> and other hardwood trees, and <i>Pinus taeda</i> in lower slope positions. These forests are relatively low in species diversity and have no other particularly diagnostic species. However, sites dominated by <i>Quercus falcata</i> in combination with other hardwoods are very rare in the region. As currently defined, this type accommodates a slight range of moisture conditions, and the vegetation is necessarily variable; however, all stands are characterized by <i>Quercus falcata</i> as the single most important species.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:36482-{E65B101A-8ECE-4EEF-9761-18EBC569E453} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 2
