| Summary: | The pine forests of the Miami Rock Ridge of extreme southeastern Florida form a highly distinctive vegetation type with the following characteristics: (1) a rough limestone (Miami oolite) substrate with abundant crevices and solution holes, but very little soil development; (2) an understory including a variety of West Indian hardwood species; and (3) a rather rich herbaceous flora, including South Florida endemics. The single overstory tree of these forests is Pinus elliottii var. densa. | |
