South Carolina, United StatesNA2023COLLECTED11/14/2023Francis Marion National Forest: plants growing in wetlands/swamps on US Forest Service Road 223 approximately 0.57 kilometers southeast from the junction with Halfway Creek Road.33.06755600, -79.6778910011Plants are growing in the understory of the acidic swamp that is seasonally inundated in shade. Slope: N/A. Aspect: N/A. The underlying geology of this area is of Pleistocene origin and characterized as an Socastee Formation. This is a low coastal formation in the Carolinas like Penholoway but younger and lower in altitude. It is comprised primarily of unconsolidated, fine-detrital clay. It is described as variegated quartzose sands, argillaceous sands, and clays, 5 m thick at the type section near Socastee Swamp. (Source: USGS South Carolina Geologic Map Data.) The primary soil type in this collection area is classified as Rutlege Series loamy fine sand. Rutlege Series soils are very deep, very poorly drained soils that are sandy, siliceous, thermic Typic Humaquepts. Upper strata soils (0-38 cm) are black loamy sand with weak medium granular structure. They are loose and very strongly acid. Lower strata (38-175 cm) range from dark gray to dark brown sand that is single grained, loose, and very strongly acid. (Source: NRCS Web Soil Survey.)Wild material2159140NA 88712

Georgia, United StatesNA2023COLLECTED12/09/2022Plants growing around a pond and associated wetland on the property of Monica Williams north of Albany, Georgia as well as the edges of nearby Muckalee Creek. Common in the wetland habitat edges. 31.63834700, -84.1383560063Plants are growing in part-shade to sun in wet to inundated conditions along the edges of a pond as well as the edges of Muckalee Creek. This species is found in conditions of abundant, year-round moisture.
Soils: The underlying geology of this area is of Eocene origin and characterized as Ocala Limestone. The Ocala Limestone consists of almost pure limestones with occasional dolomites. It can be subdivided into both lower and upper facies with the lower facies composed of a whitish to cream-colored, fine to medium grained, poorly to moderately hard, fossil rich grainstone and packstone. The upper Ocala is white and somewhat weak and poorly sorted. It is extremely fossil rich grainstone, packstone and wackestone and some chert is common in the upper facies.

The primary soil types in the collection area are classified as Herod and Muckalee Series soils. The Herod Series consists of poorly drained moderately permeable soils formed in loamy alluvium. These soils are on flood plains of streams in the Coastal Plain. Slopes range from 0 to 2 percent. The Muckalee Series consists of poorly drained moderately permeable soils formed in loamy and sandy alluvium. These soils are on flood plains of streams in the Coastal Plain. Slopes range from 0 to 2 percent.

11NA 88571RJLSEUS2022-044Itea virginica L. Florida, United StatesNA2023COLLECTED12/15/2022Plants are growing along a several mile stretch of the Yellow River and accessed by boat via the Yellow River Boat Ramp on the east side of Florida State Hwy 87. The species is common along several miles of the Yellow River.30.55805600, -86.935445001Plants are typically found growing in part-shade to sun in permanently saturated to submersed conditions along the edge of the Yellow River, growing in association with a wide array of deciduous and evergreen trees, shrubs and perennial plant species. Most of the plants along the river are adapted to acidic conditions and, while the aquatic habitats are generally fresh water, there is occasionally tidal or hurricane-caused saltwater intrusions.
Soils: The underlying geology of this area is classified as Alluvium, of Pleistocene/Holocene origin and consists of undifferentiated Quaternary sediments of varying thickness including siliciclastics, organics and freshwater carbonates. The siliciclastics are light gray, tan, brown to black, unconsolidated to poorly consolidated, clean to clayey, silty, unfossiliferous, variably organic-bearing sands to blue green to olive green, poorly to moderately consolidated, sandy, silty clays. Organics occur as plant debris, roots, disseminated organic matrix and beds of peat. Freshwater carbonates, often referred to as marls in the literature, are scattered.

The surface soil profile of this area is primarily Bibb-Kinston Series association. Bibb Series soils are coarse-loamy, sandy, acid soils that are poorly drained. They are soils of flood plains and streams subject to frequent flooding. These are found in association with Kinston Series soils that are fine-loamy, sandy, acid soils of flood plains and stream subject to frequent flooding. The Bibb-Kinston Association ranges from 1-1.5 meters thick and is strongly acid.

Plant is infrequent at this site.30.10322000, -93.762717001Plants are growing in shade to part-shade of a Taxodium distichum-Nyssa aquatica dominated forested swampland associated with Adams Bayou in a wet low-lying area that is frequently inundated.
Soils: The underlying geology of this area is of Quaternary to Late Pleistocene origin and comprised of the Beaumont Formation. This formation is yellowish- to brownish-gray, locally reddish orange with very fine to fine quartz sand, silt, and minor fine gravel, intermixed and interbedded. It also includes stream channel, point-bar, cravasse-splay, and natural levee ridge deposits, and clayey fill in abandoned channels. Channel fill is dark brown to brownish-gray with laminated clay and silt that is organic-rich. Includes marine delta-front sand, lagoonal clay, and near-shore marine sand beneath and landward of bays along the coast. Depth of this unconsolidated outwash ranges from 3-100 meters thick.

The primary soil types in the collection area are classified as Cowmarsh series. The Cowmarsh series consists of very deep, very poorly drained soils that formed in mucky silty clayey alluvial deposits of Holocene age. These depressional soils are oxbows and relict channels of rivers where flooding and ponding is frequent. Slope ranges from 0 to 1 percent but mainly less than 1 percent. very poorly drained. Runoff is negligible. Frequently flooded for very long periods from February through May and surface remains saturated for very long periods once flood waters have receded.
