Description
A description of Trilisa odoratissima is provided in The Flora of North America.
Distribution
Ecology
Habitat
It is found in frequently burned pine flatwoods or dry prairies [1] and moist areas, depressions, and seepages within burned upland longleaf pine-wiregrass communities [2] and oak-pine woodlands on Ultisols, as well as sand ridges within flatwoods and pine-saw palmettos. Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag;
invalid names, e.g. too many It was absent from the seed bank in disturbed and undisturbed sites in North Carolina. [3] It occurs primarily on sandy and drying loamy soils. [4] It is found in disturbed areas such as roadsides, fields, and ditches as well as undisturbed sites. [3] [4] Associated species include Quercus, Pinus, Pinus elliottii, Sabal palmetto, and Aristida stricta. [4]
Trilisa odoratissima is restricted to native groundcover with a statistical affinity in upland pinelands of South Georgia. [5] While this species is found in the uplands, it is found in the lowlands as well (FSU Herbarium).
Phenology
It has been seen flowering September through November and fruiting in October through November. [4]
Fire ecology
It is fire-tolerant. [3] T. odoratissima was a prevalent species on burned plots. [6]
Pollination
The following Hymenoptera families and species were observed visiting flowers of T odoratissima at Archbold Biological Station: [7]
Apidae: Bombus pennsylvanicus
Halictidae: Augochlorella aurata, Halictus poeyi
Megachilidae: Coelioxys octodentata, C. sayi, Dianthidium floridiense, Megachile albitarsis, M. inimica
