Taxonomic notes
Synonyms: Bonamia patens (Desrousseaux) Shinners var. angustifolia (Nash) Shinners; S. angustifolia (Nash) House; Bonamia angustifolia (Nash) K.A. Wilson.[1]
Description
Stylisma patens does not have specialized underground storage units apart from its rhizomes.[2] Diaz-Toribio and Putz (2021) recorded this species to have an non-structural carbohydrate concentration of 159.4 mg/g (ranking 33 out of 100 species studied) and water content of 39.4% (ranking 5 out of 100 species studied).[2]
Distribution
Ecology
Habitat
In the Coastal Plains, S. patens has been documented in a longleaf pine-mixed oak-wiregrass association on a sandy hill slope; frequently burned, mature longleaf pine-wiregrass community; sand of open pine/oak flatwoods; sandhills; edge of longleaf-slash pine/wiregrass community; oak scrub; high turkey oak sandhill; cyrpess depressions in flatwoods; sandy upland pine-oak forests; turkey oak-wiregrass community; upland pinewoods; and longleaf pine-oak barrens.[3] In disturbed habitats it has been found in boggy powerline corridors, moderately disturbed longleaf pine restoration sites, dry powerline corridors, sandy roadsides, turkey oak barren clearing, bulldozed scrub oak sandhills, and gravel pits. Soil types include sand and loamy sand.[3]
S. patens became absent or decreased its occurrence in response to agriculture in southwest Georgia pinelands. It has shown resistance to regrowth in reestablished pinelands that were disturbed by agricultural practices. [4]
Associated species include Liatris, Erianthus, Gymnopogon, Rhynchospora, Paronychia, and Dyschoriste.[3]
Stylisma patens var. patens is frequent and abundant in the Panhandle Xeric Sandhills and North Florida Subxeric Sandhills community types as described in Carr et al. (2010).[5]
Phenology
S. patens has been observed flowering May through September with peak inflorescence in June and fruiting May through November.[3][6]
Seed dispersal
This species is thought to be dispersed by gravity.[7]
