Examples from the western Panhandle of Florida and southern Alabama are distinguished by the regular presence of ~Paronychia erecta, Chrysopsis godfreyi, Balduina angustifolia, Galactia microphylla, Chrysopsis gossypina ssp. cruiseana$, and ~Chrysoma pauciflosculosa$, and the usual absence of ~Heterotheca subaxillaris$. Other characteristic species include ~Balduina angustifolia, Galactia microphylla, Chrysopsis gossypina ssp. cruiseana, Chrysoma pauciflosculosa$, and ~Uniola paniculata$. Examples on the eastern Panhandle of Florida are distinguished by the presence (and usual codominance) of ~Heterotheca subaxillaris$ and absence of ~Paronychia erecta, Chrysopsis godfreyi, Balduina angustifolia, Galactia microphylla, Chrysopsis gossypina ssp. cruiseana$, and ~Chrysoma pauciflosculosa$.
