Name: Chamaecyparis thyoides Mid-Atlantic Streamside Swamp Forest Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This alliance is characterized by <i>Chamaecyparis thyoides</i>, occurring along streamsides or coastal plain river terraces, and also colonizing bog mats forming over artificial millponds in the mid-Atlantic, from the New Jersey coastal plain to Maryland. Associates include <i>Magnolia virginiana, Morella cerifera, Nyssa biflora, Persea palustris</i>, and, on the Delmarva peninsula, <i>Alnus maritima</i>. In New Jersey, this vegetation occurs in close association with seepage-fed Pine Barrens savanna vegetation. In Delaware and Maryland, this vegetation often arises in abandoned mill ponds.
