>Hi , I am looking for as much info as I can get on the distribution of
>Sapium sebiferum, a.k.a. Chinese tallow or popcorn tree. It is an invasive
>tree found in the coastal region from Houston, TX toFlorida and up to N.
>Carolina. I am particularly interested in the types of communities where
>it occurs. In some areas it forms dense forests and in others it occurs
>mainly on the perimeters of lakes and wetlands. I am interested in
>factors (e.g., genetic, abiotic and biotic) influencing its
>distributions in different sites. Any insights would be appreciated and
>useful. I am also interested the same info from its native range.
> Thanks for any and all help.
