 This type contains Ashe juniper among the dominants together with deciduous shrubs

 and winged elm. Eastern redcedar may replace Ashe juniper in some stands.

 This type is characterized by Ashe juniper among the dominant species in the tree or
 shrub layer, or both.  Other common deciduous trees and shrubs may include Buckley

 Juniper Woodland
 gum bumelia, slippery elm, and chinkapin oak.  Eastern redcedar may be a component,
 replacing Ashe juniper, in some stands.

 This type is dominated by deciduous shrubs and small or sparse trees but may contain
 Arbuckle: Deciduous   Ashe juniper or eastern redcedar as a component.  Common woody components may   2,599.5   6,423.4   0.014%   4   0
 Shrubland   include stretchberry (elbow-bush), eastern redbud, gum bumelia, scaleybark (bastard)
 oak, post oak, blackjack oak, chinkapin oak, and winged elm.

 This type is mapped on slopes >20%, and includes sites over more or less calcareous
 soils.   Composition is similar to the Arbuckle: Ashe Juniper Woodland, but stands tend
 Arbuckle: Juniper   to be more dense and more diverse.  Ashe juniper, eastern redcedar, post oak,   1,196.0   2,955.3   0.007%   1   0
 Slope Forest
 blackjack oak, Buckley oak, scaleybark (bastard) oak, Texas ash, stretchberry (elbow-
 bush), and chinkapin oak are common components.

 This type is mapped on slopes >20%, and includes sites over more or less calcareous
 soils.  Composition depends mainly on substrate, with species such as Buckley oak,
 Arbuckle: Oak -   chinkapin oak, Shumard oak, and Texas ash occurring over limestones and species   272.8   674.2   0.002%   0   0
 Juniper Slope Forest   such as post oak, bitternut hickory, black oak, and blackjack oak more important over
 acidic substrates.  Sugar hackberry, winged elm, Ashe juniper, eastern redcedar, and
 slippery elm are other common woody components.



 This type is mapped over limestone (more calcareous) and dolomite (less calcareous)
 Arbuckle: Oak -   soils.  Ashe juniper is more important over limestone, whereas eastern redcedar is more
 Juniper Woodland   important over less calcareous soils.  Important deciduous species include post oak,   514.7   1,271.8   0.003%   0   0
 sugar hackberry, blackjack oak, chinkapin oak, Buckley oak, black oak, and winged elm.
