This is a fire-maintained woodland of the Piedmont of Virginia, occurring on soils derived from diabase rock. Although the fire frequency is abnormally high in known sites (on Fort Pickett), this community may be quite similar to some pre-settlement Piedmont communities. Canopy dominants include <i>Quercus alba, Quercus velutina, Quercus falcata, Quercus coccinea, Carya tomentosa, Carya glabra, Carya ovalis, Nyssa sylvatica</i>, and <i>Liriodendron tulipifera</i>. The subcanopy includes <i>Cercis canadensis, Cornus florida</i>, and <i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i>. Shrubs and woody vines include <i>Rhus copallinum, Rhus michauxii, Rhus glabra, Diospyros virginiana, Ulmus alata, Sassafras albidum, Toxicodendron radicans, Viburnum rafinesqueanum</i>, and <i>Fraxinus americana</i>. The herb layer includes <i>Schizachyrium scoparium, Helianthus divaricatus, Salvia urticifolia, Parthenium auriculatum, Chrysogonum virginianum, Ageratina aromatica, Desmodium laevigatum, Desmodium marilandicum, Desmodium nuttallii, Desmodium paniculatum, Desmodium perplexum, Eupatorium hyssopifolium, Eupatorium godfreyanum, Clitoria mariana, Eupatorium sessilifolium, Eupatorium altissimum, Galactia regularis, Lespedeza procumbens, Solidago pinetorum, Solidago rugosa, Solidago nemoralis, Solidago juncea, Ruellia purshiana, Matelea decipiens, Sanicula smallii, Angelica venenosa, Ligusticum canadense, Thalictrum revolutum, Triosteum angustifolium</i>, and <i>Clematis ochroleuca</i>. This community occurs in association with ~<i>Quercus alba - Quercus velutina - Quercus stellata / Schizachyrium scoparium - Desmodium</i> spp. Woodland (CEGL003722)$$, differing in underlying geology (diabase vs. granite). |

This community occurs on shallow organic soils (10-100 cm deep), in areas which burn every 3-12 years. Typically it is found around the periphery of deep peat deposits where peat feathers out onto mineral soil, in peat-filled depressions and sloughs in pine barrens, or on upland flats where drainage is poor enough to permit accumulation of an organic layer deep enough to support the cane rhizome mat. It is likely that the soil is saturated throughout most of the winter and spring, and probably dries out in the summer and fall. Organic matter depth, fire frequency, and nutrient availability are the primary factors controlling vegetation structure and composition in this community. Occurrences are known from the Mid-Atlantic Coastal Plain of South Carolina and North Carolina. This community is characterized by dense stands of <i>Arundinaria tecta</i> occasionally reaching 5 m in height, with scattered to fairly dense <i>Pinus serotina</i> (sometimes with some <i>Nyssa biflora</i> or <i>Liriodendron tulipifera</i>). Physiognomy and structure vary with fire-return interval. In areas that burn every 3-5 years, the appearance of the community will be that of nearly pure <i>Arundinaria tecta</i>, perhaps with scattered <i>Pinus serotina</i>. Cover of pocosin shrubs (e.g., <i>Ilex glabra, Ilex coriacea, Lyonia lucida, Lyonia ligustrina var. foliosiflora, Cyrilla racemiflora, Zenobia pulverulenta, Magnolia virginiana, Aronia arbutifolia</i>) and <i>Acer rubrum var. trilobum</i> increases with lack of fire, and with fire suppression greater than 15 years, these species will overtake the cane. |

This association occurs on fresh to brackish, mid-tidal, sandy/gravelly rivershores along the north and mid-Atlantic coast. It occurs in low areas where there is a longer duration of flooding. Wave and ice scour can have a significant influence on the year-to-year appearance of the vegetation, which tends to be sparse. This vegetation often occurs in nearly pure stands of <i>Schoenoplectus pungens</i> but can be intermixed with <i>Spartina alterniflora</i> or <i>Spartina cynosuroides</i> in more brackish areas. Species diversity tends to be low due to winter storm scour, but associates can include <i>Amaranthus cannabinus, Polygonum punctatum, Cyperus bipartitus</i>, and <i>Bidens</i> spp. <i>Sagittaria graminea, Sagittaria latifolia, Eleocharis palustris, Gratiola virginiana, Elatine americana, Isoetes riparia</i>, and <i>Cyperus bipartitus</i> can occur, but are absent in the northern part of the range. As the salinity decreases <i>Zizania aquatica</i> can also be an associate. |

This association occurs sparsely throughout the Piedmont of North Carolina and possibly South Carolina. One occurrence is known in southern Virginia. It is found on upland flats with dense clay soils that inhibit internal drainage, and where water pools on the surface only to shallow depths and largely outside of the growing season. The vegetation is a forest with a mixture of wetland and upland species in all strata. Some combination of <i>Quercus phellos, Quercus alba, Quercus stellata</i>, and <i>Carya carolinae-septentrionalis</i> generally dominate. The subcanopy usually includes <i>Juniperus virginiana</i> and <i>Nyssa sylvatica</i>. Frequent shrub species include <i>Ilex verticillata, Ilex decidua, Eubotrys racemosa</i>, various upland <i>Vaccinium</i> spp., and <i>Viburnum rafinesqueanum</i>. <i>Smilax rotundifolia</i> is often prominent. The herbaceous layer is generally sparse, with various wetland <i>Carex</i> spp., <i>Juncus effusus</i>, and <i>Danthonia spicata</i> most constant and most abundant. |

This forest, dominated by <i>Quercus montana</i> and <i>Pinus echinata</i>, is found on dry, usually west-facing slopes of rocky remnant hills (monadnocks) in the southern Piedmont from North Carolina to Georgia. Shrub and herbaceous layers are usually patchy or sparse, with <i>Vaccinium pallidum, Vaccinium stamineum</i>, and <i>Vitis rotundifolia</i> most abundant. |

This broadly defined type represents the least floristically distinctive Southern Appalachian herb bog vegetation, occurring most typically peripheral to the main bulk of the Appalachians and at lower elevations. It generally lacks distinctive Southern Appalachian endemic components and also is depauperate in northern disjunct species (as compared to other associations in the alliance). The shrub stratum may be patchy or locally well-developed, and consists of species such as <i>Spiraea tomentosa, Kalmia latifolia, Lindera benzoin var. benzoin, Lyonia ligustrina var. ligustrina</i>, and <i>Alnus serrulata</i>. Typical dominants in the well-developed herbaceous stratum are <i>Carex atlantica, Carex folliculata, Carex intumescens, Carex leptalea, Carex lurida, Osmunda cinnamomea</i>, and <i>Solidago patula var. patula</i>. <i>Sphagnum</i> is common. |

This association is a brackish, mid-tidal low marsh of larger tidal rivers along the mid- and north Atlantic coast. <i>Spartina alterniflora</i> is dominant, but occurs with various mixtures of species such as <i>Bolboschoenus robustus, Schoenoplectus pungens</i>, and <i>Spartina cynosuroides</i>, which may be locally prominent, especially as salinity decreases. Characteristic species in addition to <i>Spartina alterniflora</i> include <i>Lilaeopsis chinensis, Bolboschoenus robustus, Polygonum punctatum</i>, and <i>Eleocharis parvula</i>. Associated species that occur in low abundance can include <i>Amaranthus cannabinus, Atriplex prostrata, Typha angustifolia, Bolboschoenus maritimus, Eleocharis halophila, Samolus valerandi ssp. parviflorus, Sagittaria calycina</i>, and <i>Crassula aquatica</i>. Freshwater species increase as salinity decreases, such as <i>Peltandra virginica, Bolboschoenus fluviatilis, Sagittaria latifolia, Leersia oryzoides</i>, and <i>Pontederia cordata</i>. Substrate is mud or muddy, fibrous peat. |
