Description of Mapped Type: This type most often occurs over relatively continuous soils with
few openings, and is represented in a variety of land positions. Post oak is the most common
dominant, followed by blackjack oak. Western occurrences may have netleaf hackberry
replacing post oak as the dominant. Other species may include chinkapin oak, netleaf
hackberry, gum bumelia, and little walnut. Species such as bur oak, American elm, pecan, and
sugar maple may occur in more mesic areas.
