Name: Platanus occidentalis - Juglans major - Salix nigra Floodplain Woodland Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: These woodlands occur in central and western Texas on wet flats and high-energy rivershores; they are naturally or artificially disturbed and therefore maintain an open canopy. These stands are typically dominated by <i>Platanus occidentalis</i>. This vegetation may have <i>Juglans major</i> as a codominant, <i>Platanus occidentalis</i> as the dominant canopy with few other trees, and <i>Juglans microcarpa</i> as a shrub, or <i>Salix nigra</i> as a codominant. <i>Acer grandidentatum</i> may be present, as well as <i>Prunus serotina var. eximia</i>. This alliance is best documented by association-level data in the Edwards Plateau and adjacent Chihuahuan Desert of Texas; its presence elsewhere remains speculative.
