Landscape Narrative	Across creek is asphault plant, roads, and railroads, Forested stream corridor is narrow and weedy. Adjacent drier herb with Indian grass in late season is sampled by JEFF.9.;Depression on marl soil in floodplain behind levee of small creek. Depression holds water but is dry at sampling date. Community is an open forest or woodland of stunted sycamore with numerous suckers, some dead. Understory is dominated by rushes, with known EO of Juncus torreyi and J. nodosus seen at site last fall, but Juncus nodusus cf. now most evident.
