Black oak (Quercus velutina) is often the dominant tree in this fire-adapted savanna community of xeric sites, but white oak (Quercus alba), bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa), northern pin oak (Quercus ellipsoidalis), and occasionally red oak (Quercus rubra), may also be present. Canopy is variable but is typically between 5% and 60% in good-quality ...

At least half the flowers are female, staminate at the base. Perigynia are ascending, obscurely 5-13-veined, obovate-circular, trigonous in cross section, and densely pilose. Beak is absent. Leaf blades are pubescent and longer than the culm, ligules are longer than wide.

Its flowers are sessile (or nearly so), yellow with five flaring petals shorter than the tube, and densely hairy inside. Inflorescence interrupted by leafy spikes with flowers from leaf axils lobes almost equal, widely spreading, tube longer than lobes, 4 stamens. Fruits are roundish capsules, seeds are papery.

Fruits are incompletely 3-locular, the partitions not meeting in the center, somewhat turgid-inflated, 1.8-2.9mm long and nearly as thick. Principle blades are flat to involute, 1-3mm wide, with 2-3 prominent veins, lacking hard cross-partitions. Leaf sheaths have small, rounded, thin-dry, ear-shaped appendages.

It can be distinguished from the more common S herbecarpa by its short-cylindric or rounded or dome-shaped petiolar glands (not oval or club-shaped), ovary appressed-hairy (not densely villous), joints of the pods (and seeds) about twice as wide as long (not equally wide as long), and somewhat fewer leaflets per leaf (4-8 pairs vs 6-10 pairs).

Oak openings tend to be dominated by members of the white oak group, especially bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa), sometimes white oak (Q. alba), and locally in southwestern Wisconsin, chinquapin oak (Q. muhlenbergii). Black oak (Q. velutina) and shagbark hickory (Carya ovata) may also be present. Canopy closure can vary widely.
