This is a local wetland forest reported only from northwestern Oregon. It is known from moist, flat basins at moderate elevations in the mountains. Stands have seasonally wet, fine-textured mineral soils with evident mottling in a layer 29 inches below the soil surface. Populus tremuloides is the dominant tree. Picea engelmannii can be a codominant. Pinus contorta may be present with low cover. The understory, which has no shrubs, is dominated by graminoids, with Carex aquatilis var. aquatilis and Calamagrostis canadensis codominant, and Deschampsia caespitosa, Elymus glaucus, Glyceria striata (= Glyceria elata), Carex jonesii, Carex deweyana, and Juncus nevadensis present. Exotics include Phleum pratense and Poa pratensis. Forbs present include Veratrum viride, Pedicularis groenlandica, Symphyotrichum foliaceum (= Aster foliaceus), Canadanthus modestus (= Aster modestus), Senecio serra, and Geum macrophyllum. |

This community has an open canopy of Pinus elliottii var. densa occurring over a low-shrub layer and a dense herbaceous stratum characterized by a mix of tropical and temperate taxa with a high percentage of endemic species. Vegetation is typically interspersed with large areas of exposed limestone. A hardwood understory will develop under fire suppression with Quercus virginiana and Lysiloma latisiliquum typically present. Shrub layers are quite diverse and vary locally, with tropical species less abundant in the northern part of this community's range. Shrub strata species may include Acacia farnesiana, Ardisia escallonoides, Sideroxylon reclinatum ssp. reclinatum, Callicarpa americana, Chrysobalanus icaco, Dodonaea viscosa, Ficus aurea, Ficus citrifolia, Guapira discolor, Guettarda scabra, Ilex glabra, Lyonia fruticosa, Metopium toxiferum, Morella cerifera (= Myrica cerifera), Myrsine floridana, Persea borbonia, Quercus minima, Quercus pumila, Quercus virginiana, Randia aculeata, Rhus copallinum var. leucantha, Sabal etonia (= Sabal miamiensis), Sabal palmetto, Serenoa repens, Sideroxylon salicifolium, Tetrazygia bicolor, Vaccinium myrsinites, and Zamia pumila. Herbaceous species associated with this community include Acalypha chamaedryfolia, Aeschynomene viscidula, Andropogon ternarius, Anemia adiantifolia, Angadenia berteroi, Aristida patula, Asclepias verticillata, Bulbostylis sp., Chamaecrista deeringiana, Crossopetalum ilicifolium, Crotalaria pumila, Euphorbia polyphylla, Jacquemontia curtissii, Liatris chapmanii, Melanthera parvifolia, Opuntia humifusa var. humifusa, Polygala smallii, Schizachyrium spp., and Tragia urens. This community occurs on elevated (2-4 m) outcroppings of mid-Pleistocene marine limestone of the Miami Rock Ridge formation. Soils are shallow, circumneutral sands and sandy loams that accumulate in depressions and cracks in the rock surface. These soils are commonly saturated or the rock surface is very shallowly flooded for extended periods in the rainy season (May-October). |

Pinus palustris - Pinus echinata / Quercus coccinea - Quercus georgiana Woodland » more details

This community occurs on the quartzite ridge (Hollis Formation) of Pine Mountain (Harris County, Georgia). Pinus palustris, Pinus echinata, and Pinus virginiana share canopy dominance. Oaks include Quercus coccinea, Quercus prinus, Quercus georgiana, and Quercus falcata. The shrub layer contains Prunus umbellata, Hypericum hypericoides, Vaccinium arboreum, Vaccinium pallidum, and Vaccinium tenellum; Tephrosia virginiana, Solidago odora, Schizachyrium scoparium, and Pteridium aquilinum var. pseudocaudatum are present in the herb layer. Most of the area formerly occupied by this association are fire-suppressed and are now occupied by a mixed forest, with the oaks joining the pines in the canopy. Further information is needed to determine whether this association is distinct from other Piedmont/Mountain longleaf pine communities in this alliance. |
