This non-alluvial, montane wetland is primarily shrubby, with open herb-dominated areas. Known examples, from Clay County, North Carolina, and Towns County, Georgia, are on shallow slopes, at about 457-550 m (1500-1800 feet) elevation, and have a palustrine hydrology, fed by acidic seepage. Few examples are known and all have been altered considerably by grazing, fire, cultivation, and drainage efforts. Common species in the 1- to 2-m shrub stratum include <i>Alnus serrulata, Rhododendron arborescens, Lyonia ligustrina, Aronia arbutifolia</i>, and <i>Rosa palustris</i>. <i>Osmunda cinnamomea</i> and <i>Sarracenia oreophila</i> are conspicuous and occur as clumps in herbaceous openings. Other typical herb species include <i>Rhynchospora rariflora, Thelypteris palustris var. pubescens, Sagittaria latifolia, Rhexia virginica, Rhexia mariana, Eryngium integrifolium, Helianthus angustifolius, Eupatorium perfoliatum, Eupatorium pilosum, Eupatorium rotundifolium var. ovatum, Eutrochium fistulosum, Eriophorum virginicum, Sanguisorba canadensis</i>, and <i>Juncus caesariensis</i>. Other characteristic species include <i>Andropogon glomeratus, Symphyotrichum dumosum, Betula nigra, Cinna arundinacea, Drosera capillaris, Eleocharis tuberculosa, Eriocaulon decangulare, Eryngium integrifolium, Fuirena squarrosa, Gratiola pilosa, Juncus canadensis, Panicum virgatum, Polygala cruciata, Rhynchospora gracilenta, Scleria muehlenbergii, Saccharum giganteum, Scleria ciliata</i>, and <i>Xyris jupicai</i>. Fire may have been a natural disturbance in this community type, suggested by the large suite of species more typical of fire-maintained communities of the Coastal Plain. |

This swamp forest ranges from the Piedmont and adjacent inner Coastal Plain of central Virginia south through the Piedmont into north-central North Carolina. It occupies somewhat poorly drained to very poorly drained floodplains of large streams and small rivers. Typical habitats include shallow sloughs, low flat terraces, and backswamps. Hydrologic regime can be somewhat ambiguous, but is probably best characterized as seasonally flooded. Flooding is typically fairly shallow (<30 cm). Soils examined at plots had silt and silty-clay loam horizons grading to sticky clay, white- or orange-mottled subsoils. Samples were uniformly strongly acidic, but some had moderately high calcium, magnesium, and base saturation levels. Relatively undisturbed stands have a strong oak component, with Quercus phellos (most constant), Quercus palustris, Quercus lyrata, and Quercus michauxii sharing dominance in variable combinations. Quercus pagoda and Quercus bicolor also occur but are infrequent and local. Fraxinus pennsylvanica and Liquidambar styraciflua are constant, sometimes codominant overstory associates. Ilex decidua is the most constant shrub dominant, with Carpinus caroliniana and Viburnum prunifolium codominant in some areas. The herb layer is usually dense and characterized by patch-dominance of sedges and other graminoids, including Carex typhina, Carex grayi, Carex tribuloides, Carex radiata, Carex intumescens, Leersia virginica, Poa autumnalis, Glyceria striata, and Cinna arundinacea. Characteristic forbs include Boehmeria cylindrica, Impatiens capensis, Lysimachia ciliata, Lycopus virginicus, Commelina virginica, and Saururus cernuus. Spring ephemerals such as Cardamine bulbosa, Cardamine douglassii, and Claytonia virginica are sometimes abundant on hummocks and other better drained microhabitats. Invasive weeds, especially Lysimachia nummularia, are often problematic in this community type. |

This West Gulf Coastal Plain woodland comprises an open to very open, typically somewhat stunted, <i>Pinus palustris</i> canopy (averaging 16-20 m in height). The hardwood subcanopy, composed largely of <i>Quercus marilandica</i>, is also open to very open, and often occurs in scattered clumps. This type may be quite shrubby, even under frequent burning. This stratum may be strongly dominated by <i>Ilex vomitoria</i> (which is often the only species present in this stratum in Louisiana), along with <i>Callicarpa americana, Rhus copallinum, Vaccinium arboreum</i>, sprouts of <i>Quercus marilandica</i>, and sometimes <i>Quercus stellata</i>. <i>Schizachyrium scoparium</i> is the dominant herbaceous species, but a number of other herbs are present, some of which suggest the dry character of this type (for example, <i>Pityopsis graminifolia var. graminifolia</i> and <i>Oligoneuron nitidum</i>). |

This scrub community is a xeromorphic shrubland dominated by evergreen scrub oaks. It occurs in the northern Florida Panhandle, the northern to central peninsula, on Floyds Island in the Okefenokee Swamp, on Cumberland Island, Georgia, and possibly into southwestern Alabama. This is the more northern-central scrub oak community in Florida. The white or light-colored sandy soils are extremely well-drained and infertile. Scrub oaks <i>Quercus myrtifolia, Quercus chapmanii</i>, and <i>Quercus geminata</i> dominate along with <i>Lyonia ferruginea</i> and other species, many with restricted distributions, such as <i>Ceratiola ericoides</i> and <i>Serenoa repens</i>. The herb layer is generally sparse and frequently dominated by lichens (<i>Cladonia leporina, Cladonia prostrata, Cladonia evansii</i>, and <i>Cladonia subtenuis</i>). |
