Description
"High climbing vine with white pith and many tendrils with adhesive disks. Leaves palmately compound, petiolate; leaflets 3-7, usually 5, ovate, elliptic, or obovate, to 15 cm long and 8 cm wide, glabrous, usually pale beneath, occasionally pubescent, acuminate, coarsely serrate, usually above the middle of the blade, base cuneate or oblique, petiolulate. Inflorescence a panicle of cymes. Calyx flat, usually without lobes; petals 5, separate, yellowish-green, 2-3 mm long; disk small, adnate to ovary; stamens 5, filaments short; style ca. 0.5 mm long. Drupes black or dark blue, globose, 5-9 mm in diam.; seeds 1-3, lustrous brown, planoconvex, obovoid, 3.5-4 mm long."[2]
Distribution
The range is from Quebec and the Northeastern United States across to Minnesota, south to Texas, Florida, Cuba, Bermuda, and the Bahamas.[3]
Ecology
Habitat
P. quinquefolia has been found in pecan trees, mesic pine-oak-maple woodlands, swamp forest edges, and loamy sand areas.[4] It is also found in disturbed areas including wooden telephone poles, trees bordering cultivated fields, abandoned buildings, and abandoned highway bridges.[4] Associated species: Ligustrum and Celtis laevigata.[4]
Parthenocissus quinquefolia is an indicator species for the Calcareous Savannas community type as described in Carr et al. (2010).[5] Parthenocissus quinquefolia grows along fences in ditches, disturbed areas, moist hammocks and woods, and frequently occurs in rocky areas.[6]
P. quinquefloia increased its presence in response to soil disturbance by heavy silvilculture in North Carolina longleaf pine sites. It has shown regrowth in reestablished native habitat that was disturbed by these practices.[7] It does not respond to soil disturbance by clearcutting and chopping in North Florida flatwoods forests.[8]
Phenology
P. quinquefolia flowers from May through July and fruits from July through August.[1] Leaves turn orange and red shades. Leaves are lost in cold winter weather. Flowering occurs from January through August in South Florida and April through June to the North. Fruiting occurs from June to November in South Florida and June to September to the North.[9]
Seed dispersal
This species is thought to be dispersed by consumption by vertebrates.[10]
Fire ecology
Populations of Parthenocissus quinquefolia have been known to persist through repeated annual burning.[11][12]
Pollination and use by animals
Parthenocissus quinquefolia has been observed at the Archbold Biological Station to host bees such as Apis mellifera (family Apidae), plasterer bees such as Colletes nudus (family Colletidae), sweat bees from the Halictidae family such as Augochloropsis anonyma, and A. metallica, leafcutting bees from the Megachilidae family such as Coelioxys sayi, and Megachile mendica, spider wasps from the Pompilidae family such as Episyron conterminus posterus, and Tachypompilus f. ferrugineus, as well as wasps from the Vespidae family such as Mischocyttarus cubensis, Parancistrocerus fulvipes rufovestris, P. perennis anacardivora, Polistes bellicosus, Stenodynerus beameri, and Vespula squamosa.[13] Additionally, P. quinquefolia has been observed to host bees such as Aphis sp. (family Aphididae), treehoppers from the Membracidae family such as Telamona ampelopsidis and Smilia camelus, leafhoppers from the family Cicadellidae Erythroneura beameri, E. comes, E. elegans, and E. tricincta, sweat bees from the Halictidae family such as Lasioglossum cattellae, L. imitatum, and L. marinum, leafcutting bees from the family Megachilidae such as Coelioxys octodentata, C. sayi, Megachile mendica, and M. xylocopoides, and planthoppers such as Pelitropis rotulata (family Tropiduchidae).[14]
