They are distinct from their surrounding habitats, which are often woodlands dominated by longleaf pine.〔(【引用サイトリンク】Southern Coastal Plain Oak Dome and Hammock )〕 ==Mesic hammocks== Mesic hammocks, also known as upland hardwood forest, upland mixed forest, upland hardwood hammock, oak hammock, or cabbage palm hammock, grow on moist soils that are rarely flooded. There is typically a dense layer of leaf litter, and the sandy soils are relatively rich. Mesic hammocks in the central part of the Florida peninsula have a lower diversity of tree species than do those to the north and south, as the ranges of most deciduous hardwoods found in northern Florida do not extend south of about Orlando, and the ranges of the tropical hardwoods found in southern Florida do not extend as far north as Lake Okeechobee.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fws.gov/southeast/vbpdfs/commun/mth.pdf )〕 Common species are southern live oak (''Quercus virginiana''), sand laurel oak (''Quercus hemisphaerica''), and American persimmon (''Diospyros virginiana'').
