Mature upland forests of Cape May County, New Jersey
Bernard JM and Bernard FA. 1971. Mature upland forests of Cape May County, New Jersey. Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club. 98(no. 3):167-171
The mature upland forests of Cape May County, the most southerly county in New Jersey, show a decided southern affinity. The floristic diversity is not as great as areas to the south but the major species on a vegetational basis are clearly important members of the southern mixed hardwood forest. These mature stands have little in common with the vegetation of the New Jersey Pine Barrens. The Cape May forest are here considered to be outliers of the southern mixed hardwood forests
