Subspecies: S. stricta Aiton ssp. gracillima (Torrey & A. Gray) Semple
Description
A description of Solidago stricta is provided in The Flora of North America.
Distribution
Solidago stricta is widespread across the southeastern Coastal Plain region with disjunct populations in western Cuba.[1]
Ecology
Habitat
In the Coastal Plain in Florida and Georgia, S. stricta can be found in open woodlands, pine flatwoods, pine-palmetto flatwoods, ditches, lagoon edges, banks of brackish marshes, high pinelands, longleaf pine-turkey oak ridges, salt flats bordering mangrove swamps, recently burned longleaf pine-wiregrass savannas, seepage bogs, banks of ephemeral ponds, tidal marshes, sandhills, and coastal dunes.[2] It can also be found in lawns, clobbered slash pines, recently planted slash pine plantations, roadsides, vacant lots, powerline corridors, and logged over hillside bogs. It tends to be more common in mesic and wet areas than dry areas.[3] Substrates include loamy sand, peaty sand, alluvial sands, limerock, sand, and sandy peat.[2]
S. stricta became absent in response to military training in west Georgia. It has shown resistance to regrowth in reestablished longleaf pine forests that were disturbed by this activity.[4]
Solidago stricta is an indicator species for the Upper Panhandle Savannas community type as described in Carr et al. (2010).[5]
Associated species include Vigna luteola, Liatris, Pityopsis, Aristida stricta, Pinus palustris, Andropogon, Solidago sempervirens, Senecio and Euthamia.[2]
Phenology
S. stricta has been observed flowering year round and fruiting February through December.[2][6]
Seed dispersal
This species is thought to be dispersed by wind.[7]
Fire ecology
Populations of Solidago stricta have been known to persist through repeated annual burning.[8]
Pollination and use by animals
Solidago stricta has been observed to host the bee Colletes simulans (family Colletidae).[9]
Conservation, cultivation, and restoration
S. stricta should avoid soil disturbance by military training to conserve its presence in pine communities.[4]
