This association represents the Annual Succulent Zone of the Piedmont Granitic Flatrock Glade. This annual herbaceous community is a zonal component of granitic flatrock communities of the Piedmont of Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Alabama. Characteristic species include <i>Diamorpha smallii, Minuartia glabra, Minuartia uniflora</i> (from southern NC southwards), <i>Cyperus granitophilus</i>, and other annuals. Perennials are not dominant but grade in from adjacent perennial zones. |

|
This association consists of large wind-tidal flats (often exceeding a thousand acres in size), which are dominated by the cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) <i>Lyngbea</i> spp. These communities occur in subtropical southern Texas (at least as far north as Corpus Christi and likely a bit farther north) and adjacent Tamaulipas, Mexico. These areas are usually exposed but are inundated by extreme high tides and wind tides. Total acreage of this community on South Padre Island is about 11,500 acres, about 30% of the total land area. |

This association accommodates coastal tidally flooded grasslands of Florida, south Texas, and Cuba dominated by <i>Sporobolus virginicus</i>. This association also accommodates areas codominated by <i>Sporobolus virginicus</i> and <i>Distichlis spicata</i>. <i>Distichlis spicata</i> may dominate some examples in south Texas. Other species that may be present include <i>Eustachys petraea, Limonium carolinianum</i>, and <i>Sesuvium portulacastrum</i>. In addition, there may be a very sparse emergent layer of <i>Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola, Ilex vomitoria</i>, and <i>Iva frutescens</i>. |

Taxodium ascendens / Ilex myrtifolia Depression Forest

Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... |

|
This forest, dominated by a moderate to dense canopy of <i>Taxodium ascendens</i> over <i>Ilex myrtifolia</i>, occurs in depressions on the Coastal Plain from southern North Carolina south to panhandle and peninsular Florida, and west to Alabama and Louisiana. Other characteristic species in the canopy, which can occasionally share dominance with <i>Taxodium ascendens</i> are <i>Nyssa biflora</i> and (from southeastern South Carolina south) <i>Pinus elliottii var. elliottii</i>. Typical occurrences have a mostly closed canopy, little understory with shrubs and herbs established on fallen logs, tree bases or areas where the substrate is elevated. Deep areas may have rooted aquatics and surface water will be present for extended periods of the year. |

This bottomland hardwood association, primarily distributed in the Mississippi River Alluvial Plain, is typically dominated by <i>Gleditsia aquatica</i> and <i>Carya aquatica</i>. Some occurrences may contain no other canopy species. Stands of this type vary from those with 90% or more <i>Carya aquatica</i> with a heavy vine component and a subcanopy/shrub layer with <i>Planera aquatica</i> and <i>Forestiera acuminata</i> (especially at the juncture of the Red and Mississippi rivers) to those with some <i>Quercus lyrata</i> and <i>Celtis laevigata</i>. This vegetation type occurs in sites just slightly higher and drier than those that are dominated by <i>Taxodium distichum</i> and <i>Nyssa aquatica</i>, and slightly lower and wetter than those dominated by <i>Quercus lyrata</i>. |
