Name: Ligustrum spp. Eastern Exotic Ruderal Shrubland Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: These are stands of <i>Ligustrum sinense</i> or other <i>Ligustrum</i> species (including <i>Ligustrum amurense, Ligustrum japonicum, Ligustrum lucidum, Ligustrum obtusifolium, Ligustrum ovalifolium, Ligustrum vulgare</i>, and possibly others) that occur in the eastern United States on upland sites that were cleared and the soils disturbed (e.g., old fields, abandoned quarries, old homesteads). The density of the shrub layer may be such that there is no development of the herbaceous stratum. <i>Ligustrum sinense</i> is a weedy species of serious concern in the southeastern United States. These are combinations of taxa for which no natural analog exists in North America.
