Name: Pinus palustris / Quercus margarettae / Aristida spp. Woodland Group
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This group represents stands of <i>Pinus palustris</i> on sandy to loamy soils on uplands ranging from gently rolling, broad ridgetops to steeper sideslopes, and in mesic swales and terraces. The vegetation is generally open woodlands, with irregularly scattered trees of <i>Pinus palustris</i>, and usually clumps of midstory <i>Quercus</i> spp. and a grassy understory. There tends to be a fairly high diversity of forbs (broadleaf herbaceous plants), especially in sites that have been burned frequently (i.e., three or more times per decade). This group does not include the xeric and subxeric <i>Pinus palustris - Quercus laevis</i> habitats. It is found from southeastern Virginia to east Texas, including most of Florida. It does not occur in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain.
