British NVC community OV14 (Urtica urens - Lamium amplexicaule community) is one of the open habitat communities in the British National Vegetation Classification system. It is one of eight arable weed and wasteland communities of fertile loams and clays.
It is a widespread community, with no subcommunities.
The following constant species are found in this community:
There are three rare species associated with the community:
This community is widespread throughout the lowlands of southern and eastern Britain and occurs locally on the eastern side of the country as far north as the lowlands of Scotland.
It occurs typically among root and vegetable crops on light soils that are fairly base-poor, being displaced by assemblages such as the Stellaria - Capsella community in areas that are more intensively fertilised.
This article gives an overview of the plant communities formed by vegetation of open habitats in the British National Vegetation Classification system.
British NVC community MC7 is one of the maritime cliff communities in the British National Vegetation Classification system. It is one of two communities associated with sea-bird cliffs.
British NVC community OV5 is an open habitat community in the British National Vegetation Classification system. It is one of six arable weed and track-side communities of light, less-fertile acid soils.
British NVC community MG1, Arrhenatherum elatius grassland, is one of the mesotrophic grassland communities in the British National Vegetation Classification system. This type of plant community was named in 1919 as Arrhenatheretum elatiorisBr.-Bl.. It is a very widespread community throughout the British lowlands of England, Wales and southern and eastern Scotland.
