Abstract

The research area of this study lies within the southern portion of the till plains region known as the Mt. Vernon Hill Country, an area of mature topography characterized by gently rolling hills and broad alluvial valleys. Floristically, the White Walnut Creek drainage is part of the Oak-Hickory Forest Region of the Western Mesophytic Forest as defined by Braun (1950).
