Taxonomic notes

Description

Distribution

It is found in southwest and southcentral Georgia and in the eastern part of the panhandle of Florida (Weakley 2015).

Ecology

Habitat

A. dentata is restricted to native groundcover, it is commonly associated with upland pinelands of South Georgia[1]. Habitats include sandhills, longleaf pine-wiregrass savannas, longleaf-scrub oaks, boggy areas, and pine flatwoods. It occurs in disturbed areas such as roadsides and logged fields. Thrives in areas that are open or semi-shaded. Soils include dry sand, gravelly soil, loamy sand and dry and moist loamy soil[2][3].Associated species include Croton, Pinus palustris, Quercus laevis, Q. margaretta, Rhynchosia, Symphyotrichum dumosum, Carphephorus odoratissiumus, C. paniculatus, Chrysopsis spp., and Symphiotrichum dumosum[2].
