Description
A description of Rhynchospora harveyi is provided in The Flora of North America.
Distribution
Ecology
Habitat
In the Coastal Plain in Florida and Georgia, R. harveyi can be found in longleaf pine forests, drying sandy loam of open pine-oak woodlands, and on dry wiregrass/longleaf pine sandhills.[1] It can also occur in cutover pinewoods with Fimbristylis and Cyperus, sandy loam on pond margins, roadsides, and partially cutover upland longleaf pine savannas. R. harveyi responds negatively to soil disturbance by agriculture in Southwest Georgia.[2]
Associated species include Pinus palustris, Aristida stricta, Quercus, and Fimbristylis, Cyperus.[1]
Phenology
Flowering has been recorded in August and fruiting May through September. [1]
Seed dispersal
This species is thought to be dispersed by gravity. [3]
