Name: Schizachyrium scoparium - Echinacea pallida Southern Grassland Alliance Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: Stands are typically dominated by <i>Schizachyrium scoparium</i>. Other common species include <i>Baptisia</i> spp., <i>Buchnera americana, Echinacea pallida, Solidago</i> spp. , and <i>Sorghastrum nutans</i>. This alliance occurs in the southern midwestern United States, specifically in Missouri, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. Examples of this alliance occur on hilltops and steep slopes of hills and ridges. Soils are well-drained to excessively drained. Fire and edaphic factors (drought) play a role in limiting woody vegetation in this community. Without fire management, woody vegetation, such as <i>Juniperus virginiana</i>, could become dense and shade out herbaceous prairie species.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:39256-{8C01D12C-9E1F-4E77-B73C-47B11C365F6C} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
