Name: Pinus taeda - Quercus falcata - Liquidambar styraciflua / Rhus copallinum Ruderal Forest
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This successional, essentially evergreen forest of the Upper East Gulf Coastal Plain is dominated by a mixture of <i>Pinus taeda</i> with hardwoods, including <i>Quercus</i> spp. and <i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i>. The oaks present may include <i>Quercus falcata, Quercus hemisphaerica</i>, and <i>Quercus nigra</i>. These forests develop on former mesic to dry-mesic <i>Pinus palustris</i> sites, following removal of <i>Pinus palustris</i> and disturbance. There may be some variation in canopy composition with soil texture. <i>Quercus hemisphaerica</i> may be more prevalent on sandy soils, <i>Quercus nigra</i> on finer-textured ones. Common shrubs include <i>Rhus copallinum</i> and <i>Vaccinium stamineum</i>.
