Comm #10133	Ericameria teretifolia Shrubland Alliance » more details accession code: VB.CC.26291.ERICAMERIATERET	Western Ecology Working Group of...	0	This xeromorphic shrubland alliance occurs from southern California mountains and valleys to the Mojave Desert, north into the southeastern Great Basin. Stands are found on ridges, slopes and valleys above Larrea tridentata- and Ambrosia dumosa-dominated desert scrub and below Artemisia tridentata-dominated shrublands and Pinus monophylla woodlands. Substrates are coarse-textured soils derived from bedrock or alluvium. The vegetation is characterized by an open, xeromorphic, short-shrub layer (<2 m tall) that is dominated by Ericameria teretifolia. Other shrubs and dwarf-shrubs present may include Ephedra viridis, Eriogonum fasciculatum, Grayia spinosa, Gutierrezia sarothrae, Opuntia acanthocarpa, Opuntia chlorotica, Prunus fasciculata, Salazaria mexicana, Salvia dorrii, Sphaeralcea ambigua, or Stephanomeria pauciflora. The generally sparse herbaceous layer is dominated by perennial graminoids.

Comm #10136	Ilex coriacea - Lyonia lucida - Smilax laurifolia Shrubland » more details accession code: VB.CC.23664.ILEXCORIACEALYO	Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...	0	This association includes saturated shrub thickets of the East Gulf and South Atlantic coastal plains, occurring on seepage slopes and in poorly drained flats and depressions. Characteristic species are Ilex coriacea, Lyonia lucida, Smilax laurifolia, Clethra alnifolia, and Photinia pyrifolia (= Aronia arbutifolia). In Louisiana, this includes overgrown savannas. In an example from a seepage slope on Fort Gordon, Georgia, the dominant shrubs are Lyonia lucida and Lyonia ligustrina. Other shrubs and woody plants include Ilex glabra, Morella caroliniensis (= Myrica heterophylla), Rhododendron sp., Liquidambar styraciflua, Alnus serrulata, Rhus copallinum, Acer rubrum, Morella cerifera (= Myrica cerifera), Vaccinium tenellum, Gaylussacia frondosa, Gaylussacia dumosa, and Gordonia lasianthus. Herb layer dominants are Osmunda cinnamomea and Chasmanthium laxum?. Other herbs present include Xyris sp., Eupatorium rotundifolium, Rhexia sp., Pteridium aquilinum, Agalinis sp., Rubus sp., Polygala lutea, Andropogon gyrans, Panicum sp., and Cuscuta sp. A prominent vine is Smilax laurifolia.
Comm #10137	Vaccinium macrocarpon / Pogonia ophioglossoides Dwarf-shrubland » more details accession code: VB.CC.25756.VACCINIUMMACROC	Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...	0	This community occurs on groundwater-saturated, locally floating peat and sphagnum mats along the shoreline of depression ponds developed by solution and collapse of carbonate rocks underlying acidic colluvial materials deposited on the eastern edge of the Great Valley of Virginia, in Augusta, Rockingham, and southern Page counties, Virginia. This community consists of dense mats of Vaccinium macrocarpon. Other species include Calopogon tuberosus, Drosera rotundifolia, Dulichium arundinaceum, Eriophorum virginicum, Juncus canadensis, Pogonia ophioglossoides, Triadenum virginicum, and Xyris torta.

Comm #10139	Schizachyrium scoparium - Bouteloua curtipendula Red Hills Herbaceous Vegetation » more details accession code: VB.CC.23610.SCHIZACHYRIUMSC	Midwestern Ecology Working Group...	0	This little bluestem mixedgrass prairie community is found in the southern Great Plains of the United States in the Red Hills of southern Kansas and northern Oklahoma. Stands occur on gently sloping to strongly dissected Hills and escarpments on uplands. Soils consist of silt, loam, or clay. They are well-drained and range from shallow to deep. The parent material is red silty shale, red silty sandstone, red sandstone, or clayey shale. This community is dominated by short and mid grasses with abundant forbs. The herbaceous vegetation often forms two distinct layers with the lower one more dense than the taller. Andropogon gerardii, Bouteloua curtipendula, Bouteloua gracilis, Bouteloua hirsuta, and Schizachyrium scoparium are the dominant species. Other herbaceous plants that are commonly found in this community are Ambrosia psilostachya, Symphyotrichum ericoides (= Aster ericoides), Callirhoe involucrata, Gutierrezia sarothrae, Calylophus serrulatus (= Oenothera serrulata), Sporobolus compositus (= Sporobolus asper), and Sporobolus cryptandrus. There are low Juniperus virginiana trees scattered across the landscape of this community. Groves of small deciduous trees and shrubs can be found on north-facing slopes and in valleys. In these groves Celtis occidentalis, Prunus angustifolia, Rhus glabra, and Symphoricarpos occidentalis are usually the dominant woody plants.
