Name: Poa compressa - Solidago nemoralis - Centaurea stoebe ssp. micranthos Ruderal Dry Meadow & Shrubland Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This alliance includes three variants of dry ruderal grasslands: (1) Dry semi-natural grasslands found on sandy or rock substrates and includes weedy native grasses <i>Festuca</i> spp., <i>Poa compressa</i>, and <i>Schizachyrium scoparium</i>, and an assortment of dry invasive forbs such as <i>Centaurea stoebe ssp. micranthos</i> and <i>Solidago nemoralis</i>; (2) Vegetation dominated by the weedy native <i>Andropogon virginicus var. virginicus</i> that occurs on old fields, pastures, and rocky sites. Associated species vary with geography and habitat and include a mix of native and exotic species; and (3) Invasive grass dune vegetation, including stands of the non-native sedge <i>Carex kobomugi</i> that invades and overtakes coastal sand dunes dominated by <i>Ammophila breviligulata</i> and/or <i>Panicum amarum var. amarum</i>. It is reported along the central New Jersey coast and at First Landing/Seashore State Park in Virginia.
