Taxonomic notes

Description

A description of Solidago fistulosa is provided in The Flora of North America.

Distribution

Found in the Coastal Plain from Louisiana to New Jersey, however, is primarily concentrated in the southeast coastal plain[1].

Ecology

Habitat

In the Coastal Plain in Florida and Georgia, S. fistulosa occurs in wet hammocks, cabbage palm-slash pine hammocks, slash pine woodlands, lake margins, open ditches bordering swamps, shores of cypress ponds, thickets bordering cypress-gum depressions, floodplain woodlands, brackish marshes, and dried out cypress depressions. It also occurs in disturbed areas such as roadside depressions, black sandy peat of a logged over hillside bog, clear-cut sand pine scrub ridge, old pastures, and a drainage ditch bordering pine flatwoods. Soils include loamy sand, sandy loam, sandy peat, and clay. Associated species include Euthamia minor, Eupatorium, Xyris, Cladium, Rhynchospora fascicularis and Hypericum cistifolium[2].

Phenology

S. fistulosa spreads by rhizomes along with sexual reproduction. It is a monecious species. Flowers in September through October and fruits in October[2].

Fire ecology

S. fistulosa has been observed growing in a recently burned pineland bay forest and an annually burned pine forest[2].

Pollination

The following Hymenoptera families and species were observed visiting flowers of Solidago fistulosa at Archbold Biological Station (Deyrup 2015):

Apidae: Apis mellifera

Colletidae: Colletes mandibularis, C. thysanellae

Halictidae: Augochlorella gratiosa, Halictus poeyi, Sphecodes heraclei

Megachilidae: Coelioxys sayi

Sphecidae: Anacrabro ocellatus, Tachytes validus

Vespidae: Eumenes smithii, Parancistrocerus salcularis rufulus, Polistes dorsalis hunteri, Zethus spinipes

Conservation and management

S. fistulosa is a perennial weed in blueberry plantations in North Carolina. It is tolerant of terbacil[3].

Cultivation and restoration

Rubber can be made from the latex found in the leaves[4].
