Name: Quercus myrtifolia - Quercus geminata Xeric Scrub Group Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This group consists of xeromorphic shrub-scrub vegetation without an emergent overstory of <i>Pinus clausa</i>. It is dominated by sclerophyllous shrubs, such as <i>Quercus myrtifolia</i> and <i>Quercus geminata, Chrysoma pauciflosculosa</i>, or <i>Ceratiola ericoides</i>. Herbaceous ground cover is always sparse, and bare soil patches are typically evident. It is found on a sequence of sand ridges and ancient dunefields which are oriented essentially north-south in the Florida Peninsula (especially the Lake Wales Ridge) and to a lesser extent in southern Georgia. This group has long been noted for its unique and interesting vegetation.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:39980-{706BE993-D0E0-40C4-91AF-71AA352A4A63} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
