Description
Distribution
Centrosema arenicola is endemic to central peninsular Florida to the Lake Wales Ridge area.[2]
Ecology
Habitat
In the Coastal Plain in Florida, C. arenicola has been found to occur in upland hardwood associations of Quercus and Sabal palmetto.[3] Associated species include Quercus, Myrica, Sabal palmetto, Eupatorium, Galactia, and Clematis.[3]
Centrosema arenicola is an indicator species for the North Florida Longleaf Woodlands community type as described in Carr et al. (2010).[4]
Phenology
Centrosema arenicola flowers in August and September.[3][5]
Pollination and use by animals
Centrosema arenicola was observed at the Archbold Biological Station to host bees such as Bombus pennsylvanicus (family Apidae) and leafcutting bees from the Megachilidae family such as Megachile integra and M. mendica[6]
