Common name: Feay's prairie clover

Taxonomic notes

Synonym: Petalostemon feayi Chapman.[1]

Varieties: none.[1]

Description

D. feayi is a perennial species and is one of only four prairie clovers native to Florida.[2][3] It is erect and has a rounded growth.[3]

Distribution

Found in the Florida peninsula and some areas in Georgia [3].

Ecology

Habitat

In the Coastal Plain in Florida, D. feayi can be found in pine/oak sandhills; open oak scrubs; thinly wooded longleaf pine/live oak ridges; and Pinus clausa/Ceratolia scrub with Sabal etonia and Bumelia lacuum. [4] It has been found in human impacted areas such as roadsides, recently planted citrus groves, disturbed xerophytic oak-sand pine scrubs, and bulldozed slash pine/oak scrub. It has been found growing in Paola (Spodic Quartzipsamments) soil. [4]

Associated species include Quercus chapmanii, Paronychia erecta, Calamintha coccinea, Liatris provincialis, Dalea feayi, Polygonella robusta, Heterotheca subaxillaris, Pityopsis, Licania michauxii, myrtle oak, and sand pine.

Phenology

D. feayi has been observed to flower between March and September with peak inflorescence July to September and fruits in September. [4][5]

Fire ecology

It is an obligate seeder and ha observed to revitalize following fire. [6]

Pollination

Dalea feayi has been observed at the Archbold Biological Station to be visited by bees such as Bombus impatiens (family Apidae), sweat bees from the Halictidae family such as Agapostemon splendens, Augochlorella aurata, Augochloropsis sumptuosa, Halictus poeyi and Lasioglossum nymphalis, leafcutting bees from the Megachilidae family such as Anthidiellum perplexum, Anthidium maculifrons, Megachile brevis pseudobrevis, M. deflexa, M. inimica and M. petulans, thread-waisted wasps from the Sphecidae family such as Bembix sayi, Bicyrtes capnoptera, Cerceris bicornuta, Isodontia exornata, Sphex dorsalis, Tachytes grisselli and T. pepticus, and wasps from the Vespidae family such as Stenodynerus fundatiformis and Zethus spinipes.[7]
