Description

Distribution

Ecology

E. curtisii was absent before herbicide treatments near the end of the growing season but present after. This might be because of increased availability of resources.[1]

Habitat

This has been found in wet pine flatwoods, in Longleaf pinelands and savannas (FSU Herbarium). This has also been spotted in human disturbed areas such as along roadsides and in edges of flatwoods (FSU Herbarium). May be associated with areas that have been disturbed where the soil is a heavy sticky clay type (FSU Herbarium).

Phenology

Seed dispersal

Seed bank and germination

Fire ecology

This species has been seen in Longleaf pinelands after a prescribed burn (FSU Herbarium).

Pollination

Use by animals
