This community occurs in floodplain edges of brownwater floodplains in the South Atlantic and Mid-Atlantic Coastal Plains, in situations that are very rarely flooded by alluvial waters, but which receive regular seepage from adjacent upland slopes. The hydrology is constantly saturated, and soils are acid and organic. The canopy is strongly dominated by Nyssa biflora, with some Acer rubrum, Quercus michauxii, Magnolia virginiana, Liriodendron tulipifera, and Liquidambar styraciflua. The subcanopy has abundant Ilex opaca, with some Acer rubrum and Liquidambar styraciflua. The shrub layer is dominated by Leucothoe axillaris, with Itea virginica, Clethra alnifolia, Persea palustris, and Arundinaria gigantea also present. Woody vines such as Decumaria barbara, Toxicodendron radicans, and Vitis sp. are locally common. The herb layer is well-developed and is dominated by species such as Carex atlantica ssp. capillacea, Carex bromoides ssp. bromoides, and Woodwardia areolata. Other herbs include Boehmeria cylindrica, Osmunda cinnamomea, Osmunda regalis var. spectabilis, Ludwigia palustris, Macbridea caroliniana, Carex leptalea, Platanthera clavellata, Hydrocotyle verticillata var. verticillata, and Mitchella repens. Sphagnum spp. have substantial cover. |

This pin oak - swamp white oak flatwoods is found in the midwestern United States and adjacent Canada near Lake Michigan and Lake Erie. Stands occur on poorly drained uplands or in depressions on level glacial lakeplains or outwash plains. There is a layer of acidic sand over a layer of impermeable or nearly impermeable clay resulting in a shallow, perched water table. Ponding is common during the wet seasons and droughts in the summer, leading to a complex of forest upland and wetland species. Deciduous hardwoods and softwoods predominate. Diagnostic species include <i>Quercus bicolor, Quercus ellipsoidalis, Quercus palustris</i>, and <i>Acer rubrum</i>. Other associates include <i>Ilex verticillata</i> and <i>Ulmus americana</i>. The herbaceous layer, which can be sparse, contains <i>Carex muskingumensis, Glyceria striata, Maianthemum canadense, Mitchella repens</i>, and <i>Osmunda cinnamomea</i>. |
