Observation Narrative	The plot represents the only stand of Spartina cynosuroides noted on Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge. The habitat is located near the limit of tidal influence at the upland edge of an extensive salt marsh complex. Groundwater inputs here may contribute to nearly fresh conditions. Southeastern edge of marsh at foot of White Hills, ca. 0.5 mi southeast of the mouth of Janeys Creek.
