This mesic to dry-mesic forest of the West Gulf Coastal Plain is typified by an overstory of both <i>Pinus echinata</i> and <i>Quercus alba</i>. In high-quality examples, <i>Pinus taeda</i> is rare to absent as would have been expected in most areas of the presettlement landscape. <i>Quercus alba</i> may be more important than <i>Pinus echinata</i> in some examples, possibly those which have received the least amount of disturbance. These are normally closed forests above a well-developed subcanopy of mixed hardwoods. The density and composition of the shrub and herbaceous layers vary greatly depending upon a number of factors, including the range of moisture and potential nutrient conditions which are possible in stands assigned to this type. <i>Viburnum dentatum</i> and <i>Viburnum acerifolium</i> are listed as nominals suggesting the most mesic stands of this type; somewhat less mesic examples may lack these species. |

This association occurs in wetland flats, backdunes and interdune swales along the Atlantic Coast from southern New Jersey to Florida. The substrate may be sand or loamy sand, sometimes with a thin layer of organic matter. It occurs beyond the reach of most storm tides but may be impacted by salt spray. The water table may often be less than half a meter below the surface, and may be dry at the end of the growing season. Canopy closure varies from densely closed to moderately open. This vegetation is dominated by <i>Morella cerifera (= Myrica cerifera)</i>, sometimes intermixed with <i>Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola</i> (from North Carolina and possibly southern Virginia southward), <i>Morella pensylvanica (= Myrica pensylvanica)</i> (from northern North Carolina northward), <i>Rhus copallinum, Baccharis halimifolia</i>, or <i>Ilex vomitoria</i>. The shrub layer can vary from 2-8 m in height. Occasionally, a sparse emergent canopy of trees (such as <i>Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola</i> or <i>Sabal palmetto</i> in the southern parts of the range) may be present. The herbaceous layer is characterized by <i>Spartina patens</i>. Other ground flora associates include <i>Toxicodendron radicans, Eupatorium capillifolium, Eupatorium hyssopifolium var. hyssopifolium, Panicum virgatum, Andropogon</i><i> virginicus, Juncus dichotomus, Solidago sempervirens, Smilax</i> spp., <i>Parthenocissus quinquefolia, Vitis</i> spp., and <i>Schoenoplectus pungens (= Scirpus pungens)</i>. Small openings may have wetland graminoids, such as <i>Juncus roemerianus, Spartina patens, Fimbristylis castanea, Andropogon glomeratus var. pumilus, Muhlenbergia filipes</i>, etc., and forbs, such as <i>Hydrocotyle bonariensis, Sabatia stellaris, Polygonum hydropiperoides, Eleocharis</i> spp., etc. In other cases, few herbs are present, because of the dense, thicket-like shrub layer. |

This is the typical high pocosin or tall pocosin of peatlands and wet mineral soils of the southeastern Coastal Plain, ranging from North Carolina south to Georgia and apparently to Florida. <i>Pinus serotina</i> individuals are scattered and more-or-less stunted. Typical shrubs, forming a dense tangle with abundant <i>Smilax laurifolia</i>, are <i>Cyrilla racemiflora, Lyonia lucida, Ilex glabra, Ilex coriacea, Persea palustris</i>, and sometimes <i>Kalmia carolina</i>. Other component shrubs can rarely include <i>Clethra alnifolia, Vaccinium formosum, Gaylussacia frondosa (= var. frondosa), Kalmia cuneata, Photinia pyrifolia (= Aronia arbutifolia), Chamaecyparis thyoides, Acer rubrum var. trilobum, Morella cerifera (= Myrica cerifera var. cerifera), Lyonia ligustrina var. foliosiflora, Magnolia virginiana, Rhododendron viscosum</i>, and <i>Toxicodendron radicans</i>. Of these species, <i>Magnolia virginiana</i> may be constant, all others are quite scarce, except <i>Kalmia cuneata</i> locally. |
