Which may happen over time if the Florida scrub is not preserved

First of all, you need to know this: Florida scrub in its various phases has been called xeric

scrub, sand scrub, big scrub, sand pine scrub, oak scrub,

evergreen oak scrub, dune oak scrub, evergreen scrub

forest, slash pine scrub, palmetto scrub, rosemary scrub,

and rosemary bald. Florida scrubs may be classified as

coastal or interior. Scrubs are often named by the dominant

plant species, as in rosemary scrub, sand pine scrub,

palmetto scrub, or oak scrub. Some authors have confused

closed-canopy forests of sand pine trees with scrub. Scrubs

that are very recent in origin, usually a result of mans

activities, are called pioneer scrubs. Communities

intermediate between scrub and pine flatwoods have been

called dry or xeric flatwoods but now are referred to as

scrubby flatwoods. Communities intermediate between

scrub and high pine have been called southern ridge

sandhills, hickory scrub, yellow sand scrub, turkey oak

scrub, turkey oak barrens, and natural turkey oak barrens,

but probably are best referred to as scrubby high pine.

What would happen over time is that the scrub will start to become extinct.
